Figure 2

Conceptual MSEM depicting the within- and between-person effects. The figure illustrates that repeated measures of affect and alcohol outcomes are decomposed into latent trait (between) and state (within) components. The between-person lability variable is also estimated from the repeated measures data. For clarity, a simplified model omitting additional hypothesized effects and covariates is depicted.
