We are excited to share the announcement of an upcoming workshop on the OpenMx extended structural equation modeling (SEM) R package, taking place in Richmond, Virginia, USA, from November 14-16, 2024.
This "Master Class" is designed for people whoalready know a bit about SEM, but want to learn about the OpenMx way of specifying and fitting models. OpenMx has a wide array of highly flexible and highly modular features (e.g., mixtures, multiple groups, time series, regularization, ordered categorical variables, multilevel, item response theory, hidden Markov models, etc.), but has a difficult learning curve. A goal of this workshop is ease that learning curve and thereby allow attendees to leave with the ability to fit a wider variety of models than they thought possible.
The workshop will be led by the OpenMx development team, including Steve Boker, Mike Neale, Tim Brick, Rob Kirkpatrick, Hermine Maes, Luis Castro de Araujo, and Mike Hunter.
