I am a researcher, software developer, consultant, and college professor. Two of my main areas of research are nonlinear variance-based structural equation modeling, and evolutionary biology as it applies to the study of human-technology interaction. My degrees are in engineering (B.E.E.), computer science (M.S.), and business (Ph.D.). I am interested in the application of science, statistics, and technology to the understanding of human health and behavior. Here I blog about statistics, and more specifically about nonlinear variance-based structural equation modeling and WarpPLS, the first software to enable this type of analysis. My personal web site contains my contact information and freely available articles related to the topic of this blog: nedkock.com.
