Intensive Longitudinal Methods: An Introduction to Diary and Experience Sampling Research de Niall Bolger

Intensive Longitudinal Methods: An Introduction to Diary and Experience Sampling Research: Methodology in the Social Sciences

Autor Niall Bolger, Jean-Philippe Laurenceau
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 9 apr 2013

Descoperim în Intensive Longitudinal Methods un volum care vine să completeze o lacună critică în literatura de specialitate: lipsa unui ghid practic integrat pentru analiza proceselor psihologice și sociale care se desfășoară în timp real, în contexte naturale. În timp ce manualele clasice de statistică se concentrează pe măsurători punctuale, lucrarea semnată de Niall Bolger și Jean-Philippe Laurenceau oferă instrumentele necesare pentru a studia dinamica zilnică a indivizilor și grupurilor prin metode de eșantionare a experienței.

Considerăm că forța acestui volum rezidă în abordarea aplicată a modelelor multinivel pentru designuri intra-subiect (within-subject). Cartea este organizată progresiv: începe cu definirea și justificarea metodelor intensive, trece prin tipologia designurilor de cercetare și fundamentele datelor longitudinale, culminând cu tehnici avansate de modelare pentru rezultate continue sau categoriale. Spre deosebire de Handbook of Research Methods for Studying Daily Life, care oferă o privire de ansamblu enciclopedică asupra instrumentelor de măsurare, acest volum este mult mai focalizat pe execuția statistică și pe prezentarea rezultatelor pentru publicare.

Credem că experiența de lectură este facilitată de numeroasele exemple practice. Autorii nu se limitează la teorie, ci oferă seturi de date ce pot fi procesate în diverse medii software, de la SPSS la R. Această lucrare continuă preocuparea lui Niall Bolger pentru studiul individului în mediul său, temă centrală și în Persons in Context, dar aici accentul se mută de pe cadrul sociologic pe rigoarea metodologică necesară capturării schimbării în timp real.

Descriere scurtă

This book offers a complete, practical guide to doing an intensive longitudinal study with individuals, dyads, or groups. It provides the tools for studying social, psychological, and physiological processes in everyday contexts, using methods such as diary and experience sampling. A range of engaging, worked-through research examples with datasets are featured. Coverage includes how to: select the best intensive longitudinal design for a particular research question, apply multilevel models to within-subject designs, model within-subject change processes for continuous and categorical outcomes, assess the reliability of within-subject changes, assure sufficient statistical power, and more. Several end-of-chapter write-ups illustrate effective ways to present study findings for publication. Datasets and output in SPSS, SAS, Mplus, HLM, MLwiN, and R for the examples are available on the companion website (www.intensivelongitudinal.com).

Recenzii

"Because they allow researchers to understand within-person processes in natural settings, intensive longitudinal methods are essential tools for building a science of the individual. Bolger and Laurenceau do a superb job of taking readers through the mechanics of research design, data analysis, and interpretation, enabling readers to tackle important questions about 'who we are' in depth and detail. I highly recommend Bolger and Laurenceau's book for those wishing to learn and use these powerful methods."--Walter Mischel, PhD, Niven Professor of Humane Letters in Psychology, Columbia University

"In a remarkably short period of time, intensive longitudinal designs have become a staple of the behavioral scientist's toolbox, yet researchers do not always know how to make the most of their data. This is the book we have been waiting for. Bolger and Laurenceau have written a complete, authoritative, and highly accessible volume that is sure to set the standard for years to come. Researchers and students will find this landmark volume to be an essential resource."--Harry T. Reis, PhD, Department of Clinical and Social Sciences in Psychology, University of Rochester

"Bolger and Laurenceau have put together a fantastic primer. The well-crafted and clearly explained background, examples, datasets, and programming codes make this a go-to book for learning how to prepare, analyze, and make the most of intensive longitudinal data. Both instructors and students will appreciate the straightforward, highly readable format. This book's pages are sure to get well worn."--Nilam Ram, PhD, Department of Human Development and Family Studies and Department of Psychology, The Pennsylvania State University

"A valuable and immensely practical resource from two of the world's intensive longitudinal masters. This book is a 'must read' for researchers. Each chapter provides detailed, step-by step guidance on basic to advanced analytic techniques, including exemplar data sets, visual imagery, complete statistical code, and sample write-ups. From spaghetti plots to power analysis, with Bolger and Laurenceau as expert guides, researchers will learn what to do, how to do it, and how to write it up."--Tamlin S. Conner, PhD, Department of Psychology, University of Otago, New Zealand

"This book details exactly how to analyze data gathered from diary and experience sampling studies. In clear language and with real data, it explains how to use multilevel modeling to answer common types of research questions. To make the presentation complete, syntax for SPSS, SAS, and Mplus is provided. Researchers and graduate students conducting studies of daily life will find this book indispensable. I would use it as a text in a graduate-level research methods class and as a resource when designing and conducting my own analyses."--Joel M. Hektner, PhD, Department of Human Development and Family Science, North Dakota State University

"This book couldn’t have come at a better time. All too often, investigators are not sure how to deal with the vast amounts of data they collect using diary methods, and do not fully appreciate the strengths and limitations of their data. This book, in my opinion, is the cure."--Howard Tennen, PhD, Department of Community Medicine and Health Care, University of Connecticut Health Center

"Intensive longitudinal research yields uniquely rich data, but the analyses quickly get complex. Bolger and Laurenceau give researchers the necessary tools and knowledge to conduct and analyze their own intensive longitudinal studies. Using to-the-point explanations and helpful, realistic examples, the book goes step by step through everything there is to know, from the very basics to advanced data-analytic issues--and does so in a delightfully engaging manner."--Matthias R. Mehl, PhD, Department of Psychology, University of Arizona

"The book addresses cutting-edge quantitative approaches to within-subject causal modeling of change while illustrating how researchers can combine rich qualitative data with powerful mixed-modeling approaches. I will definitely use this book in extending my own research related to these types of scenarios."--Larry R. Price, PhD, Director, Initiative for Interdisciplinary Research Design and Analysis, Texas State University
-“A clear, straightforward and exceedingly practical text….In each chapter the authors attentively integrate theory, including links to published studies, with meticulous instruction, comprising example datasets and code for the major statistical software packages….Highly valuable to any researcher (PhD upwards), in particular at the stage of writing a research proposal.”--The Psychologist, 11/1/2013ƒƒ“One of the advantages of intensive longitudinal designs is that they allow for an in-depth analysis of how various psychological processes operate within a person….Overall, we found this volume to be very approachable, fast-paced, and interesting….Not only do the authors do an excellent job of explaining how intensive longitudinal data can be modeled, they also provide step-by-step instructions on how to do so….We found it extremely easy to follow along with the examples provided in the text. Researchers who are interested in learning how to use these methods will be able to follow the examples easily and adapt the syntax for their own purposes. Moreover, as an additional instructional tool, the authors provide examples of how to report results for a journal article, providing clear templates and thorough explanations of what kinds of information should be reported and how to do so….Many authors of methodological books struggle to find the right balance between explaining technical matters in a way that can be understood by newcomers, but without sweeping too much of the technical details under the rug. Bolger and Laurenceau strike this balance perfectly. The volume contains valuable introductory chapters that explain the rationale behind the statistical models, the motivation for using intensive longitudinal designs, and some excellent examples….Indeed, it is the chapters on psychometrics (Chapter 7) and statistical power (Chapter 10) that really make this volume shine….Valuable to both younger and seasoned researchers.”--Journal of Social Psychology, 1/1/2014ƒƒ“The book is a welcome addition to the Guilford Press Methodology in the Social Sciences book series. Overall, the book provides a cogent overview of the methodology, including modern applications to research and intervention, and its practical impact. Examples of longitudinal data collection, analysis, and reportage are generously dispersed throughout the book in a fresh, jargon-free, and self-contained format….Takes the methodological challenges seriously and endeavors to provide the reader with a generous cache of reporting techniques to best represent the data and answer the relevant research questions without compromising intelligibility or reliability….An excellent textbook, with over 200 empirical references supporting its contents….Additionally, the authors include several chapter-specific appendices presenting data sets and syntax for a wide selection of statistical software packages….I…would recommend this textbook for advanced graduate courses, and as a necessary tool for researchers interested or engaged in intensive longitudinal design, or those seeking to incorporate the method for grant preparation, ongoing research, program and practice evaluation, and publication.”--Research on Social Work Practice, 9/19/2013ƒƒProvides an in-depth and integrated treatment of the subject that focuses on related applications of a single analytical approach, namely multilevel modeling….[T]here is much here of value for anyone who is engaged in observational research using [intensive longitudinal methods (ILM)]. Written with minimal statistical notation and a highly readable style, this is an accessible and practical introduction to multilevel modeling of [intensive longitudinal data (ILD)]….[T]he book provides valuable guidance on everything from preparing data for analysis through writing up the methods and results in manuscript form. The example data sets are available from a companion web site and computer code is provided for several common statistical packages….[T]he authors have successfully achieved their aims of providing a practical introduction to multilevel modeling of ILD. The book is particularly appropriate for behavioral scientists, but the methods described here apply to any situation in which the focus is modeling within-subject processes, and should have broad, cross-disciplinary appeal. For educators, the book would also make a fine text for a course on advanced longitudinal data analysis.--Journal of American Statistical Association, 11/13/2014
