\title{Tank data from Bliese and Lang (2016)}
\description{
A partial sample of data collected by Lang and reported in Lang and
Bliese (2009). The tankdat sub-sample was used as an example of discontinuous
growth modeling in Bliese and Lang (2016). The data set is in long (univariate)
format, and contains performance data from 184 participants over 12 repeated
measures on a complex tank simulation task. In the research paradigm, the task
was unexpectedly changed after the first six performance episodes. Discontinuous
growth models were used to examine participants' reactions to the
unexpected change. The data set contains the person-level predictor of
conscientiousness.
