Since Charles Spearman published his seminal paper on factor
analysis in 1904 and Karl Joresk og replaced the observed variables
in an econometric structural equation model by latent factors in
1970, causal modelling by means of latent variables has become the
standard in the social and behavioural sciences. Indeed, the
central va- ables that social and behavioural theories deal with,
can hardly ever be identi?ed as observed variables. Statistical
modelling has to take account of measurement - rors and
invalidities in the observed variables and so address the
underlying latent variables. Moreover, during the past decades it
has been widely agreed on that serious causal modelling should be
based on longitudinal data. It is especially in the ?eld of
longitudinal research and analysis, including panel research, that
progress has been made in recent years. Many comprehensive panel
data sets as, for example, on human development and voting
behaviour have become available for analysis. The number of
publications based on longitudinal data has increased immensely.
Papers with causal claims based on cross-sectional data only
experience rejection just for that reason.
