We are excited to share resources for microcoding caregiver-child interactions!

Re-enactments of Caregiver-Child Conflict Discussions
In these videos, you will see re-enactments of conflict discussions from our recently completed validation microFIMS study. Paid actors participated in these re-enactments, and you are invited to download the videos for training purposes. In the study, each caregiver-child dyad was instructed to spend about 1 minute selecting an area(s) of disagreement to discuss and then asked to spend 5 minutes discussing the selected area(s). This is the first video in our set of five training videos. We will upload a coded ELAN file for each video to help facilitate training on the microFIMS manual.

Microcoding Using ELAN
Here are the instructions and template for conducting second-by-second coding in ELAN, an open source software. These instructions were developed for our microFIMS system, but could be applied to other microanalytic coding systems.
DSEM Tutorials
There are many different statistical approaches for analyzing dyadic interactions. Dynamic structural equation modeling (DSEM) is a powerful framework that combines aspects of multilevel modeling, time series modeling, and structural equation modeling to enable estimates of within-dyad processes and between-dyad variability therein. In this tutorial paper, we walk through different examples of how to estimate DSEMs with binary and ordinal data.
