Under `Figures/`, we provide all figures contained in the manuscript licensed under the terms and conditions of the CC-BY 4.0.
The directory `Full Results for Illustrative
Example on Self-Esteem and Relationship
Satisfaction/` contains the full model output
from lavaan and hence a complete overview of
the results.
Furthermore, an application of the formulae for the DCSM to the empirical example from the manuscript is provided in the folder `Appendix DCSM/`.
The directory `Model Syntax Mplus/` contains
exemplary syntax files for Mplus (`.inp`) and
simulated datasets for the models presented in
the article.
The directory `Model Syntax R/` contains
exemplary model syntax for the R package
lavaan along with simulated datasets for all
models presented in the article.
Note that the simulated datasets do not
reproduce the results of the illustrative
example.
