Hello. I'm fitting a lgcm to data which is censored normal. The postfitting graph options allow me to view the observed trajectories for each individual, but there isn't the option to view the individual fitted growth curves. Is there guidance available which gives guidance on how to do the relevant calculations? Thank you.

The only place I can think of is our description of the censored regression model in Chapter 5 of our new book. That would be relevant because your censored outcomes are regressed on growth factors.

Thanks, I'll have a look at this. Meanwhile, if I am fitting growth curves to data considered normal, how can I go about replicating the calculations which Mplus does to estimate the fitted growth curves?

See out handout for the Topic 3 short course on our website.

Thanks! I'll go through that now.
