Abstract
Bayesian piecewise linear growth modeling is a flexible tool for capturing nonlinear change. It breaks the overall growth trajectory into connected linear segments. In this study, we evaluated Bayesian model indices for specifying changepoints. Our results suggest the BIC and DIC have decent selection rates for the true model.
