SPIT CAMP II – LGM-HLM - Institute for Interdisciplinary Salivary
SPIT CAMP II – LGM-HLM
This workshop is designed to cover a spectrum of methodological and analytical techniques involving salivary
analytes. Specifically, it includes two commonly needed strategies for modeling longitudinal data: Latent
Growth Modeling and Hierarchical Linear Modeling. These analytical techniques examine: (1) reactivity and
recovery in response to an acute stressor, and (2) the relations between analyte diurnal rhythms and their
correlates.
Latent Growth Modeling with the Integration of Mediation and Moderation Analyses
Laboratory and Developmental Data
Spit Camp II – LGM focuses on cutting-edge methods and statistical analyses that address research questions
involving salivary analyte and biomarker data collected from laboratory designs and developmental projects.
This workshop focuses on latent growth modeling (LGM) and addresses questions such as: (1) how to model
reactivity and recovery after an acute laboratory induced stressor; (2) how to model the trajectory of change
over time in developmental data; (3) whether the variables of interest would predict the trajectory of change
and/or whether the trajectory of change would predict the outcomes of interest (mediation model in the LGM
framework); and subsequently, (4) whether the pattern of mediation observed would vary across groups
(moderated mediation in the LGM framework).
Multilevel Analysis (Hierarchical Linear Modeling)
Ecological Momentary Assessment Data
Spit Camp II – HLM teaches cutting-edge statistical methods for analyzing salivary analyte and biomarker data
collected from ecological momentary assessments and diary-based projects. Hierarchical Linear Modeling
(HLM) addresses many research questions involving the dynamics of experience and salivary analytes on a
day-to-day basis. For example, (1) do variables like daily stress predict an analytes diurnal rhythm indexed by
wakeup level, awakening response, and diurnal slope within-person over time; (2) does the relation between
daily stress and an analytes diurnal rhythm vary across individuals with different characteristics; and (3) what
are the variables that predict asymmetry between multi-system measurements of biological systems. This
workshop will explain which statistical strategies are best suited to answer which research questions – we will
provide a decision-making tree and guidelines.

The workshop will provide participants hands-on experience in analyzing data with a user-friendly software
called Mplus. During the workshop, computers with Mplus will be provided to facilitate the training. No data is
necessary, simulated / archived data are available at the workshop for hand-on practice. However,
participants are welcome to bring their data for hand-on practice if available. Lecture handouts and computer
examples will be provided in class. The ultimate objective of this workshop is to advance your projects
sufficiently so that with minimal additional effort grant proposals or publications would be successfully
generated.
