News and radio stations in Dallas, Texas, have apparently convinced the public that a massive crime wave has occurred during the past 4 years, from 2002 to 2005 . A criminologist gathered the crime rate data, but needs your help to run a latent growth curve model to test ( FIGURE CAN'T COPY ) whether a linear trend in crime rates exist for the city. The data set information is: ``` Observed variables: time1 time2 time3 time4 Sample Size 400 Correlation Matrix 1.000 Means 5.417 5.519 5.715 5.83 Standard Deviations .782 .755 .700 .780 ``` Create a LISREL-SIMPLIS program, diagram the model with standardized coefficients and interpret your findings. Have crime rates increased in Dallas from 2002 to 2005 ?
