We recommend installing the latest development version of this
package from Github to ensure use of the latest and greatest version. To
do so: 1. Install the devtools package if you haven’t. In
R, this can be done using the following code:
install.packages('devtools') 2. Load the
devtools package using the following code:
library(devtools) 3. Install the AlignLV
package using install_github() using the following
code:
devtools::install_github('mmansolf/AlignLV',build_vignettes=T)The ,build_vignettes=T is optional but recommended for
viewing the vignette accompanying this package (COMING SOON). The
AlignLV package is not yet on CRAN, so trying to install it
with install.packages() will not work. This is coming
soon!
While the above method should work for most users, there are
alternatives: * The ghit library has an analogous
ghit::install_github() function to that in the
devtools package * Download the package as a .zip file,
then run the following code and interactively select the .zip file to
install:
install.packages(file.choose(), repos = NULL, type = "source")

Bug reports and feedback are always welcome. For reporting bugs and requesting minor improvements, please use the “Issues” functionality in Github. For larger requests for improvement or scholarly co-operation in expanding the true score imputation framework, please email me directly at maxwell.mansolf@northwestern.edu. When in doubt, either contact method is fine.
