Measurement and data analytic issues in couples research
Article Abstract:
The data analytic strategies in couples research are influenced by both conceptual and structural characteristics of measurement. Most of the earlier studies in couples research failed to take into consideration the conceptual or methodological advances. Critiques of nonindependence in couples' data and the techniques for analysis when the predictor variables vary between-couples, within couples or both, can improve couples research.
