Summary: The authors consider children's behavioural and emotional problems and their relationships with possible predictors. They propose a multivariate transitional mixed-effects model for a longitudinal study and simultaneously address non-ignorable missing data in responses and covariates, measurement errors in covariates, and multivariate modelling of the responses and covariate processes. A real dataset is analysed in detail using the proposed method with some interesting results.
