Sage Publications, Inc, 1984

Sometimes, it is more complicated than a pre/post test
Often, if we want to examine the effect of some particular event on something we are measuring/observing, we often resort to a simple pre/post test for all of the wrong reasons: it is easy and/or we did not know any better. This short text is a discussion on performing regression analysis when longitudinal events are involved. This text is not a 'how to' book. By 'discussion', I mean that ...
