Examples Using Mplus

This part of the web site contains many examples of analyses using Mplus. The examples are divided into five categories: continuous outcomes, categorical outcomes, mixture models, applications using Mplus and Mplus webnotes. The analyses were run on a 400 Mhz Pentium II computer.

Each example consists of an input setup, data, and output. Most of the Mplus input setups are annotated with comments indicated by exclamation marks that explain key model specifications. The input setups also contain references if appropriate. Many of the Mplus outputs are annotated to point out highlights of the analysis results.

Examples will be added periodically. Email us at mplus@statmodel.com if you have a particular example that you would like to see.
