This book is designed primarily for upper level undergraduate and
graduate level students taking a course in multilevel modelling and/or
statistical modelling with a large multilevel modelling component. The
focus is on presenting the theory and practice of major multilevel
modelling techniques in a variety of contexts, using Mplus as the
software tool, and demonstrating the various functions available for
these analyses in Mplus, which is widely used by researchers in various
fields, including most of the social sciences. In particular, Mplus
offers users a wide array of tools for latent variable modelling,
including for multilevel data.
