Hi Alan,

I've not researched this at all yet, but maybe it would be possible to fit this type of model using -gllamm- or -cmp- (both can be found easily using the -findit- command).  The only other idea that I have is to look into using Mata with the appropriate matrices, which may be easier said than done.

HTH,
Billy

I can estimate either growth curve readilly using xtmepoisson, but I'm interested in estimating the relationship between them. That is, as secd goes up, does negative behavior go down. I would like to estimate them simultaneously as you can do with Mplus. I also have this data clustered by school. So I have 8 waves of data for each child and 15 schools.
