Teaching & Research Interests

Research
Jeon's research revolves around developing, applying, and estimating a variety of latent variable models for studying measurement and growth. She also has a keen interest in developing efficient computational algorithms and software packages. Research topics include respondent-item network analysis, dynamic feedback process modeling, and joint modeling of behavioral and biological process data.
