Is it possible in Mplus to estimate a growth model that is not linear in the parameters, e.g. of the form Yit = 1+1/(1+ksi1*e^-(ksi2*Lambda) + eit (i.e., a logistic form when indicators are continuous)?
THANK YOU!

No. But see the literature by Brown and du Toit (Collins-Sayer longitudinal book on Best Methods) as well as Cudeck (MBR?).
