[Feature Request]: Multivariate Latent Growth Curve Modeling in JASP

[LeeYongkwan8]

Description

Multivariate latent growth curve models are used in many statistical analyses. Currently, JASP only provides a simple latent growth curve model and cannot explain changes in the dependent variable due to changes in the predictor.

Purpose

Make it possible to job1 ~ job6 as a predictors at "https://jasp-stats.org/2022/02/22/latent-growth-curve-modeling-lgcm-in-jasp/"

@LeeYongkwan8
thx for the request. This might take some time to implement.

I am not sure what is actually asked here. @LeeYongkwan8 Do you have a reference for this type of analysis? Looking at JASP, it seems one can add predictors of the latent intercept and slope. If the model becomes too complex, one would switch to the SEM analysis, because it is virtually impossible to address complex relationships with a standardized GUI.
