Resumen

Los modelos de crecimiento latente han sido un avance para el estudio del cambio en investigación longitudinal. La presencia de datos incompletos durante el proceso de medición es un problema permanente en estos estudios. Se plantea una simulación para explorar el papel de distintos mecanismos de pérdida de datos (MCAR, MAR y MNAR) y en la recuperación de parámetros en los modelos de crecimiento latente. Se esperaba encontrar diferencias en la estimación, el ajuste y el sesgo en función de los diferentes escenarios y del tratamiento de datos perdidos. Se han generado muestras de diferentes tamaños, con valores perdidos bajo distintas condiciones. Algunos mecanismos muestran desajustes en la estimación al aplicar procedimientos de eliminación de sujetos. No obstante, otros tratamientos permiten compensarlo. Los cambios en la parametrización afectan al ajuste, al porcentaje de sesgo y aumentan la variabilidad entre réplicas, mostrándose diferencias entre los distintos métodos aplicados.
