title: "Examples of Latent Change Score Models"
output: rmarkdown::html_vignette
description: > 
  This vignette provides a comprehensive exploration and practical demonstrations of the `getLCSM()` function. This function is designed to construct Latent Change Score Models (LCSMs) using one of four different functional forms: quadratic, negative exponential, Jenss-Bayley, and nonparametric functions. Notably, the negative exponential and Jenss-Bayley LCSMs can be fitted as intrinsically nonlinear models. Moreover, the function provides the flexibility to be constructed with or without the incorporation of time-invariant covariates (TICs).

## Load nlpsem package, dependent packages and set CSOLNP as the optimizer
```{r, message = FALSE}
library(nlpsem)
mxOption(model = NULL, key = "Default optimizer", "CSOLNP", reset = FALSE)
```

## Load pre-computed models
```{r, message = FALSE}
load(system.file("extdata", "getLCSM_examples.RData", package = "nlpsem"))
```

## Load example data and preprocess data
```{r, message = FALSE, eval = FALSE}
# Load ECLS-K (2011) data
data("RMS_dat")
RMS_dat0 <- RMS_dat
# Re-baseline the data so that the estimated initial status is for the
# starting point of the study
baseT <- RMS_dat0$T1
RMS_dat0$T1 <- (RMS_dat0$T1 - baseT)/12
RMS_dat0$T2 <- (RMS_dat0$T2 - baseT)/12
RMS_dat0$T3 <- (RMS_dat0$T3 - baseT)/12
RMS_dat0$T4 <- (RMS_dat0$T4 - baseT)/12
RMS_dat0$T5 <- (RMS_dat0$T5 - baseT)/12
RMS_dat0$T6 <- (RMS_dat0$T6 - baseT)/12
RMS_dat0$T7 <- (RMS_dat0$T7 - baseT)/12
RMS_dat0$T8 <- (RMS_dat0$T8 - baseT)/12
RMS_dat0$T9 <- (RMS_dat0$T9 - baseT)/12
# Standardize time-invariant covariates (TICs)
## ex1 and ex2 are standardized growth TICs in models
RMS_dat0$ex1 <- scale(RMS_dat0$Approach_to_Learning)
RMS_dat0$ex2 <- scale(RMS_dat0$Attention_focus)
xstarts <- mean(baseT)/12
```

## Example 1: Fit nonparametric LCSMs to assess the development of reading ability from Kindergarten to Grade 5, both with and without incorporating baseline teacher-reported approach to learning and attentional focus. The `getSummary()` function is used to generate a comprehensive summary table for these two models. Additionally, the visual representations of the growth rate and change from the baseline for both models.

## Example 2: Fit LCSMs with quadratic, negative exponential and Jenss-Bayley functional forms. Additionally, the visual representations change from the baseline for three models.
```{r, message = FALSE, eval = FALSE}

  dat = RMS_dat0, t_var = "T", y_var = "R", curveFun = "quadratic", intrinsic = FALSE,
  records = 1:9, res_scale = 0.1
  )
set.seed(20191029)
Read_LCSM_EXP_r <- getLCSM(
  dat = RMS_dat0, t_var = "T", y_var = "R", curveFun = "negative exponential",
  intrinsic = FALSE, records = 1:9, res_scale = 0.1, tries = 10
  )
set.seed(20191029)
Read_LCSM_JB_r <- getLCSM(
  dat = RMS_dat0, t_var = "T", y_var = "R", curveFun = "Jenss-Bayley",
  intrinsic = FALSE, records = 1:9, res_scale = 0.1, tries = 10
  )
```

```{r}
Figure3 <- getFigure(
  model = Read_LCSM_QUAD@mxOutput, sub_Model = "LCSM", y_var = "R", curveFun = "QUAD", 
  y_model = "LCSM", t_var = "T", records = 1:9, xstarts = xstarts, xlab = "Year",
  outcome = "Reading"
)
show(Figure3)
Figure4 <- getFigure(
  model = Read_LCSM_EXP_r@mxOutput, sub_Model = "LCSM", y_var = "R", curveFun = "EXP", 
  y_model = "LCSM", t_var = "T", records = 1:9, xstarts = xstarts, xlab = "Year",
  outcome = "Reading"

Figure5 <- getFigure(
  model = Read_LCSM_JB_r@mxOutput, sub_Model = "LCSM", y_var = "R", curveFun = "JB", 
  y_model = "LCSM", t_var = "T", records = 1:9, xstarts = xstarts, xlab = "Year",
