Curriculum Vitae
Eunsook Kim, Ph.D., has a broad interest in research methodology and psychometrics including structural equation modeling, multilevel modeling, latent class analysis, and factor mixture modeling. Her focal research interests include measurement invariance testing in multilevel and longitudinal data. She has recently focused on factor mixture approach to testing measurement invariance particularly with multilevel data and with a large number of groups. She has been involved in research groups studying propensity score analysis, multilevel confirmatory factor analysis, Bayesian estimation, and robust ANOVA in collaboration with faculty and graduate students.
