Description: 1. DATA AND SYNTAX CSV, MPLUS input, and output files accompany Bednall and Zhang (In press), which presented four approaches to analyze congruence-as-outcome model, inlcuding difference score, Edwards (1995), Cheung (2009), and Directional and Non-Directional Difference (DNDD) approaches (Bednall and Zhang, In press). All MPLUS syntax, output and dataset are available. Specifically, two types of files are uploaded, including 1) The "Study2.csv" is the dataset; 2) MPLUS input and output files of analysis based on 4 methods, i.e., difference score method (1.1-1.3), "2 Edwards method", and "3 Cheung method", and DNDD method (4.1-4.3). 2. VIDEO INTRODUCTION Chinese video introduction of DNDD has been uploaded, which is based on a talk about DNDD in Shandong University, China. English video introduction of DNDD is coming soon.
