Abstract

"Applied Linear Regression for Longitudinal Data: With an Emphasis on Missing Observations" by Frans E. S. Tan and Shahab Jolani is a book that focuses on the analysis of quantitative longitudinal outcomes using linear regression models. It is designed for researchers and students in the fields of epidemiology, health, social, and behavioral sciences. The book emphasizes interpretation rather than mathematics and provides practical examples to help readers understand the concepts. It also addresses the treatment of missing data, which is common in longitudinal studies. The book is well-written and suitable for those interested in longitudinal data analysis, although it could benefit from providing more details on the mathematical aspects of statistical methods.
