Parent–child relationship, parenting behaviors, and adolescents’ depressive symptoms after an earthquake: unraveling within-adolescent associations from between-adolescent differences

Longitudinal associations between posttraumatic stress disorder, separation anxiety, and rumination among adolescents: Disentangling within-person and between-person associations.

“…This method provides a great advantage for studying within-person relations; by comparing adolescents to themselves, it eliminates the influence of between-person factors (Y. Li, Ye, & Zhou, 2023) like genetics, environment, and individual traits. To be specific, after controlling for the interference of between-person effects, the true temporal relations between variables can be identified at the withinperson level, which can avoid spurious associations (Sorjonen et al, 2023) and provide a more accurate theoretical account of the dynamic changes over time in comorbidity treatment for adolescents.…”

“…Thus, the random-intercept CLPM (RI-CLPM) was proposed, including within-person autoregressive and cross-lagged parameters along with between-person random intercepts, which can disentangle within-person dynamics from stable between-person differences (Hamaker et al, 2015). This method provides a great advantage for studying within-person relations; by comparing adolescents to themselves, it eliminates the influence of between-person factors (Y. Li, Ye, & Zhou, 2023) like genetics, environment, and individual traits.…”
