Maria-Therese Friehs: Intergroup contact development: Disentangling between-person and within-person processes
AUTHORS’ LIST Maria-Therese Friehs (Osnabrück University, Germany), Maarten van Zalk (Osnabrück University, Germany) SHORT ABSTRACT Longitudinal data on intergroup contact and attitudes are essential to identify potentially causal effects. However, many analytical approaches modelling longitudinal effects (e.g., cross-lagged panel models, latent growth curve models) do not differentiate within-person processes and between-person differences, which might affect the models’ results and interpretation. This presentation gives an empirical example of different modelling approaches and discusses their implications. |
