+- `psychometric_core` recovers the Driver, Oud, and Voelkle (2017, p. 16 `discreteTDPREDEFFECTstd`; Eq. 3, p. 4; Table 2, p. 12; footnote 4; §7.2, pp. 20–22; 2017-era ctsem `summary.ctsemFit.R`; JSS PDF re-opened 2026-08-31T03:08Z from https://www.jstatsoft.org/index.php/jss/article/download/v077i05/1104) scalar standardised discrete time-dependent predictor effect on current main as an independent successor of queued unstandardised `discreteTDPREDEFFECT` (#336). Page 16 prints discrete-time transformations for a chosen event interval and, when appropriate, standardised matrices with the suffix `std`. Footnote 4 standardises using only the relevant variance, not the total. Table 2 names `M` `TDPREDEFFECT` and names `TDPREDVAR` the time-dependent predictor variance. The 2017-era source (cran 2.5.0) forms `discreteDRIFT` as `OpenMx::expm(DRIFT * timeInterval)` and forms continuous `TDPREDEFFECT`; it does not form a `discreteTDPREDEFFECT` or `discreteTDPREDEFFECTstd` matrix, and it comments out `TDPREDVAR` / `TDPREDVARstd`. Page 22 does not report standardised TDPRED estimates because that example assumes no model for the predictor variance. The scalar map is the footnote 4 standardisation of the named discrete coefficient `e^{A Δt} M` after strictly positive `asymDIFFUSION` `p = −q / (2 a)` and strictly positive `TDPREDVAR` `v`: `e^{a Δt} m · √v / √p`. Form strictly positive `p` first, then strictly positive `v`, then the discrete coefficient, then the SD ratio. A zero coefficient is exactly zero after those positive SDs. Unstandardised `e^{a Δt} m` is defined for growing `a ≥ 0` and for zero diffusion; standardised discrete TDPRED is not. Zero `q` has no positive process SD and fails closed. Zero `v` has no positive predictor SD and fails closed. Lasting `p` requires stable `a < 0`. A non-event clock fails closed. A non-positive event interval fails closed. Binary64 underflow of `e^{a Δt}` to `+0` is a vanishing discrete coefficient and is kept. `m · √v / √p` is `TDPREDEFFECTstd` and does not depend on `Δt`. `e^{a Δt}` is `discreteDRIFTstd` after the scalar stationary SD ratio of 1 and is not this map. `A^{-1}[e^{A Δt} − I] M · √v / √p` is discreteCINT arithmetic on `M` and is not this map. `e^{a Δt} m · √v / √(trait + p + added)` uses the total and is not this residual map. Meredith (1993) remains unread. Mislevy (1991, *Psychometrika, 56*, 177–196) remains unread. Still not a Kalman filter, not a matrix `expm`, not ESEM estimation, not DSEM, and not ctsem estimation.
 - Removed the repository-local hourly PR-maintenance caller now covered by the central required scheduler, retired stale workflow registrations, narrowed documentation triggers, keyed PR concurrency by fixed workflow name, repository, and pull-request number without cancelling non-PR runs, and combined line/branch coverage on one sequential runner while preserving both 100% gates and diagnostics.
 
 - `event_core` adds bounded Allen interval-consistency classification, atomic path-consistency closure, contradiction/resource refusals, and an explicit dependency-error fallback without claiming unrestricted global satisfiability.

-- Do not use the difference quotient as a continuous-time rate. The scalar map is `a = ln(φ) / Δt` on event time. Discrete lags from unequal event intervals are not one coefficient; remap them through that log-rate. Binary64 `exp(a Δt) = 0` is not a discrete lag. A constant predictor's discrete effect is Voelkle et al. (2012, Eq. 12), evaluated as `a_yx (expm1(z) / a_xx)` with `z = a_xx Δt` so a finite result is not lost when `z` overflows to `-∞` or when `a_yx Δt` overflows. When `expm1(z)` overflows at a finite `z`, rewrite in log space; a zero continuous effect is exactly zero; an overflowing `a_yx/a_xx` rewrite term fails closed. The first-order product is the underflow limit of that equation, not the general constant-predictor discrete effect. A time-varying predictor whose sampling interval equals its constancy interval uses Voelkle et al. (2012, Eq. 14): `b* = a_yx Δt`. Unmatched intervals fail closed (Oud & Jansen, 2000, unread). Discrete process noise is Driver et al. (2017, Eq. 3): `Q_Δt = 0.5 q (expm1(z) / a)` with `z = 2 (a Δt)` and `q = G G⊤ ≥ 0`; do not form `2 a` first; `a = 0` and `z → 0` recover `q Δt`; a zero diffusion is exactly zero; an overflowing rewrite scale `0.5 q / a` fails closed; this is not a Kalman filter. `Q_Δt` is `cov(η_t | η_{t-1})`, not `Var(η_t)`. The lagged covariance is `exp(a Δt) p` and the unconditional variance is `exp(2 a Δt) p + Q_Δt` (Driver et al., 2017, Eq. 3–4, pp. 4–5; JSS has no numbered §2.2). A zero diffusion whose `2 (a Δt)` overflows to `+∞` is not a finite `Var(η_t)`. The stationary within-subject variance is the `Δt → ∞` limit of Eq. 4: `-q / (2 a)` for stable `a < 0` (JSS p. 16 `asymDIFFUSION`; §4.3). When `2 a` is finite, form `q / -(2 a)` so `q / a` overflow does not lose a finite result (`q = MAX`, `a = -0.75` → `MAX / 1.5`). When `2 a` overflows, form `(q / a) * -0.5`. Do not form `0.5 q` first (`q = from_bits(1)` underflows). `a ≥ 0` has no finite stationary variance. Finite-interval `Q_Δt` is not that limit. Trait-plus-state variance is `trait + state` and lagged covariance is `trait + exp(a Δt) p` (Driver et al., 2017, §4.3, p. 9). Trait variance is not process noise and not `asymDIFFUSION`. Evolving the summed variance as if it were all state is not that map. This is not RI-CLPM. Observed-indicator variance is `λ² Var(η) + θ` when `MANIFESTTRAITVAR` is zero and `λ² Var(η) + θ + ψ` otherwise (Driver et al., 2017, Eq. 5, p. 5; Table 2, p. 12). Lagged observed covariance is `λ² cov(η_t, η_{t-1}) + ψ`; `MANIFESTVAR` does not enter. Observed-indicator mean is `τ + λ μ` (Driver et al., 2017, Eq. 5; Table 2, p. 12). `MANIFESTMEANS` is `τ`, not `E(y)`. `E(η)` is not `E(y)`. `CINT` is not `MANIFESTMEANS`. `T0MEANS` is not `E(y)`. The discrete latent mean is `μ_t = exp(a Δt) μ_0 + (exp(a Δt) − 1)/a κ` (Driver et al., 2017, Eq. 3, p. 4; Table 2, p. 12). `T0MEANS` is not `μ_t`. `CINT` is not that discrete increment. A zero drift is `κ Δt`. Underflow of `exp(a Δt)` to `+0` drops the carried `T0MEANS` and keeps `−κ / a`. The evolved observed mean is `τ + λ μ_t` (Driver et al., 2017, Eq. 5 of that Eq. 3 map). The first-occasion map `τ + λ μ_0` is not `E(y_t)`. `μ_t` is not `E(y_t)`. The contemporaneous time-dependent predictor impulse is `m x` (Driver et al., 2017, Eq. 3 fourth summand; Table 2 `TDPREDEFFECT` is `M`). Form `μ_t` first, then add `m x`. `TDPREDEFFECT` is not `CINT`. `M x` is not `A^{-1}[e^{A Δt} − I] B z` and is not Voelkle et al. (2012, Eq. 14). The §7.2 level-change form is not that impulse. The observed mean of that contemporaneous impulse is `τ + λ(μ_t + m x)` (Driver et al., 2017, Eq. 5 of the Eq. 3 fourth-summand composition). The evolved map `τ + λ μ_t` is not that observed mean. The carry map `τ + λ(μ_t + e^{a(t−u)} m x)` is not that observed mean when `u ≠ t`. The evolved-plus-impulse latent mean is not `E(y_t)`. The time-independent predictor increment is `A^{-1}[e^{A Δt} − I] B z` (Driver et al., 2017, Eq. 3 second summand; Table 2 `TIPREDEFFECT` is `B`). Form `B z` first, then the discrete intercept map. A zero drift is `B z Δt`. `TIPREDEFFECT` is `B`, not that discrete increment. `A^{-1}[e^{A Δt} − I] B z` is not `CINT`, not `M x`, and not Voelkle et al. (2012, Eq. 14). The observed mean of that increment is `τ + λ(μ_t + A^{-1}[e^{A Δt} − I] B z)` (Driver et al., 2017, Eq. 5 of the Eq. 3 printed addend after the `T0MEANS` carry and the `CINT` increment). The evolved map `τ + λ μ_t` is not that observed mean. The contemporaneous map `τ + λ(μ_t + m x)` is not that observed mean. The carry map `τ + λ(μ_t + e^{a(t−u)} m x)` is not that observed mean when `u ≠ t`. The evolved-plus-increment latent mean is not `E(y_t)`. The within-interval time-dependent impulse carry is `e^{A(t−u)} M x` for `t0 < u < t` (Driver et al., 2017, Eq. 1–2 Green-function integral of Eq. 2; §7.2 dissipation). Form `m x` first, then `e^{a(t−u)} m x`. A zero drift is `m x` with no dissipation. Underflow of `e^{a(t−u)}` to `+0` is vanishing dissipation and is kept. `e^{A(t−u)} M x` is not the contemporaneous Dirac, not `CINT`, not `TIPREDEFFECT`, and not Voelkle et al. (2012, Eq. 14). An impulse at `u = t` is the contemporaneous map. An impulse at `u ≤ t0` is already in `η(t0)`. The observed mean of that carry is `τ + λ(μ_t + e^{a(t−u)} m x)` (Driver et al., 2017, Eq. 5 of the Eq. 1–2 carried latent mean). The evolved map `τ + λ μ_t` is not that observed mean. The contemporaneous map `τ + λ(μ_t + m x)` is not that observed mean when `u ≠ t`. `MANIFESTMEANS` is not `E(y_t)`. The carried latent mean is not `E(y_t)`. The first-occasion time-independent predictor shift is `t0_b z` (Driver et al., 2017, Table 3 `T0TIPREDEFFECT`; Eq. 3 first summand). Form `t0_b z` first, then `e^{a Δt} t0_b z`. Form `μ_t` first, then add that carry. A zero drift is `t0_b z`. Underflow of `e^{a Δt}` to `+0` is a vanishing carry of the first-occasion shift and is kept. `t0_b z` is not `A^{-1}[e^{A Δt} − I] B z`, not `CINT`, and not `M x`. `e^{A Δt} t0_b z` is not `t0_b z`. `T0TIPREDEFFECT` is the coefficient, not the shift. The observed mean of that first-occasion carry is `τ + λ(μ_t + e^{a Δt} t0_b z)` (Driver et al., 2017, Eq. 5 of the Table 3 / Eq. 3 first-summand composition). The evolved map `τ + λ μ_t` is not that observed mean. The process-increment map `τ + λ(μ_t + A^{-1}[e^{A Δt} − I] B z)` is not that observed mean. The contemporaneous map `τ + λ(μ_t + m x)` is not that observed mean. The impulse-carry map `τ + λ(μ_t + e^{a(t−u)} m x)` is not that observed mean when `u ≠ t0`. The evolved-plus-carry latent mean is not `E(y_t)`. The first-occasion time-dependent predictor shift is `t0_m x0` (Driver et al., 2017, Table 3 `T0TDPREDEFFECT`; Eq. 3 first summand; JSS PDF re-opened 2026-08-20T19:10Z). Form `t0_m x0` first, then `e^{a Δt} t0_m x0`. Form `μ_t` first, then add that carry. A zero drift is `t0_m x0`. Underflow of `e^{a Δt}` to `+0` is a vanishing carry of the first-occasion shift and is kept. `t0_m x0` is not `M x`, not `e^{A(t−u)} M x` for `t0 < u < t`, not `t0_b z`, not `A^{-1}[e^{A Δt} − I] B z`, and not `CINT`. `e^{A Δt} t0_m x0` is not `t0_m x0`. `T0TDPREDEFFECT` is the coefficient, not the shift. An impulse at `u ≤ t0` that used `M` is already in `η(t0)` as `TDPREDEFFECT`, not as `T0TDPREDEFFECT`. The observed mean of that first-occasion TD carry is `τ + λ(μ_t + e^{a Δt} t0_m x0)` (Driver et al., 2017, Eq. 5 of the Table 3 / Eq. 3 first-summand TD composition; JSS PDF re-opened 2026-08-20T19:07Z). The evolved map `τ + λ μ_t` is not that observed mean. The process-increment map `τ + λ(μ_t + A^{-1}[e^{A Δt} − I] B z)` is not that observed mean. The contemporaneous map `τ + λ(μ_t + m x)` is not that observed mean. The impulse-carry map `τ + λ(μ_t + e^{a(t−u)} m x)` is not that observed mean when `u ≠ t0`. The first-occasion TI map `τ + λ(μ_t + e^{a Δt} t0_b z)` is not that observed mean. The evolved-plus-carry latent mean is not `E(y_t)`. The lasting level-change `CINT` is `κ = −a m x` (Driver et al., 2017, §7.2, pp. 20–21; JSS PDF re-opened 2026-08-20T19:45Z). Form `m x` first, then multiply by `−a`. Stable `a < 0` is required so `−κ / a = m x` is an equilibrium offset. `a ≥ 0` cannot hold a new process mean. `−a m x` is not the dissipating Dirac `m x`, not a free `CINT`, and not `A^{-1}[e^{A Δt} − I] B z`. The extra near-zero-drift latent process also named in §7.2 is a different specification and is not this `CINT` setting. Equation 3 maps that intercept as `(1 − e^{a Δt}) m x` (JSS PDF re-opened 2026-08-20T19:50Z). Form the level-change `CINT` first, then the discrete intercept map. Underflow of `e^{a Δt}` to `+0` keeps `m x`. `(1 − e^{a Δt}) m x` is not `m x`, not `κ`, and not `A^{-1}[e^{A Δt} − I] B z`. The printed §7.2 lasting level change is an extra near-zero-drift latent process (Driver et al., 2017, §7.2, pp. 22–23; JSS PDF re-opened 2026-08-20T23:10Z). `T0MEANS`, `CINT`, `T0VAR`, `DIFFUSION`, and `TRAITVAR` of that process are fixed to 0; `TDPREDEFFECT` on it is fixed to 1; its `DRIFT` diagonal is very close to 0 (printed example `−0.000001`; precisely 0 causes computational problems); the original process is driven by the `DRIFT` coupling `a_{ηξ}`. After a unit identification impulse the scalar contribution is `a_{ηξ} x (e^{ε Δt} − e^{a Δt}) / (ε − a)` (`ε = a` is `a_{ηξ} x Δt e^{a Δt}`). Form `a_{ηξ} x` first. A zero coupling or zero predictor is exactly zero. `ε ≥ 0` fails closed. That contribution is not `κ = −a m x`, not `(1 − e^{a Δt}) m x`, and not the dissipating Dirac `m x`. The observed mean of that extra-process contribution is `τ + λ(μ_t + a_{ηξ} x (e^{ε Δt} − e^{a Δt}) / (ε − a))` (Driver et al., 2017, Eq. 5 of that §7.2 contribution; JSS PDF re-opened 2026-08-21T06:12Z). The extra process has `LAMBDA` 0 and is not an observed indicator. Original indicators load on the original process after the `DRIFT` coupling. The evolved map `τ + λ μ_t` is not that observed mean. The contemporaneous map `τ + λ(μ_t + m x)` is not that observed mean. The contribution is not `E(y_t)`. The evolved-plus-contribution latent mean is not `E(y_t)`. `T0TDPREDEFFECT` on the extra process begins at `t = 0` and uses `Δt = t − t0` for both the original-process evolution and the extra drive. `TDPREDEFFECT` after `t0` uses `t − u` with `t0 < u < t` for the extra drive while `μ_t` still uses `Δt`. The observed mean of that after-t0 extra-process contribution is `τ + λ(μ_t + a_{ηξ} x (e^{ε(t−u)} − e^{a(t−u)}) / (ε − a))` (Driver et al., 2017, Eq. 5 of that §7.2 after-t0 contribution; JSS PDF re-opened 2026-08-21T06:32Z). The first-occasion extra-process observed mean is not that observed mean when `u ≠ t0`. The impulse-carry map `τ + λ(μ_t + e^{a(t−u)} m x)` is a Dirac on the original process and is not that `DRIFT` drive. An impulse at `u = t0` or `u = t` is not interior. The asymptotic time-independent predictor effect is `-B z / a` (Driver et al., 2017, §7.2, pp. 20–21; JSS PDF opened 2026-08-21T13:08Z). Form `B z` first, then divide by `-a`. Stable `a < 0` is required. `a ≥ 0` cannot hold a finite process-mean change. `-B z / a` is not the coefficient `B`, not `A^{-1}[e^{A Δt} − I] B z`, not `CINT`, and not `M x`. The asymptotic time-independent predictor variance is `(B / a)² v` (Driver et al., 2017, §7.2, pp. 20–21 `addedTIPREDVAR`). Form the unit asymptotic effect first, then square, then multiply by `v`. `(B / a)² v` is not `TRAITVAR`, not `asymDIFFUSION`, and not `-B z / a`. The asymptotic continuous intercept is `-κ / a` (Driver et al., 2017, Table 2, p. 12 `asymCINT`; Eq. 3 as `Δt → ∞`; JSS PDF opened 2026-08-21T16:13Z). Form `κ` first, then divide by `-a`. Stable `a < 0` is required. `-κ / a` is not `κ`, not `A^{-1}[e^{A Δt} − I] κ`, not `T0MEANS`, and not `-B z / a`. The p. 16 stationary `T0MEANS` constraint is `-κ / a + −B z / a`. Form the intercept contribution first, then include the TI extra effect, then add. That constrained first-occasion mean is not free `T0MEANS`, not `asymCINT` alone, not `asymTIPREDEFFECT` alone, and not the finite-interval discrete latent mean. Equation 5 of that constrained mean is `τ + λ(−κ / a + −B z / a)` (Driver et al., 2017, §4.3, pp. 9–10; Eq. 5, p. 5; JSS PDF re-opened 2026-08-21T20:07Z). Form the stationary latent mean first, then `τ + λ` of that mean. `τ + λ μ_0` for free `T0MEANS` is not that composition. `τ + λ(−κ / a)` is not that composition when `B z ≠ 0`. `τ + λ μ_t` is not that composition. `MANIFESTMEANS` is not `E(y_0)`. The constrained latent mean is not `E(y_0)`. The p. 16 constrained first-occasion variance `trait + −q / (2 a) + (B / a)² v` is not free `T0VAR`, not `asymDIFFUSION` alone, not `TRAITVAR` alone, not `addedTIPREDVAR` alone, and not the finite-interval discrete latent variance. Eq. 5 of that constrained variance is `λ²(trait + −q / (2 a) + (B / a)² v) + θ + ψ` (JSS PDF re-opened 2026-08-22T03:20Z; form the stationary latent variance first, then `λ² p + θ + ψ`; `λ² p_0` is not that observed variance; `λ²(−q / (2 a)) + θ` is not that observed variance when `TRAITVAR` or `addedTIPREDVAR` is nonzero; `MANIFESTVAR` is not `Var(y_0)`; the constrained latent variance is not `Var(y_0)`). The lagged covariance of that constrained process is `trait + e^{a Δt}(−q / (2 a)) + (B / a)² v` (Driver et al., 2017, Eq. 3–4 of §4.3 / p. 16 `T0VAR`; JSS PDF re-opened 2026-08-22T19:13Z). Trait and `addedTIPREDVAR` do not decay with `e^{a Δt}`. Contemporaneous `T0VAR` is not that lagged map. Decaying the constrained total as if it were all state is not that lagged map. Equation 5 of that lagged covariance is `λ²(trait + e^{a Δt}(−q / (2 a)) + (B / a)² v) + ψ`. `Θ` does not enter. Contemporaneous `Var(y_0)` is not that lagged observed covariance. The lagged latent covariance is not that observed covariance. The later-occasion variance of that constrained process is `trait + e^{2 a Δt}(−q / (2 a)) + Q_Δt + (B / a)² v` (Driver et al., 2017, Eq. 3–4 of §4.3 / p. 16 `T0VAR`; JSS PDF re-opened 2026-08-22T23:12Z). Trait and `addedTIPREDVAR` do not enter `Q_Δt`. Under stationarity that composition equals contemporaneous `T0VAR`. Evolving the constrained total as if it were all state is not that later map. The lagged covariance omits `Q_Δt` and is not that later map. `Q_Δt` is not that later map. Equation 5 of that later-occasion variance is `λ²(trait + e^{2 a Δt}(−q / (2 a)) + Q_Δt + (B / a)² v) + θ + ψ`. The lagged observed covariance omits `Q_Δt` and `θ`. `MANIFESTVAR` is not `Var(y_t)`. The later-occasion latent variance is not `Var(y_t)`. The later-occasion variance of §4.3 predetermined `T0VAR` is `trait + e^{2 a Δt} p_0 + Q_Δt + (B / a)² v` (Driver et al., 2017, Eq. 3–4 of §4.3 predetermined first occasion; JSS PDF re-opened 2026-08-23T05:12Z). Trait and `addedTIPREDVAR` do not enter `Q_Δt`. Free `T0VAR` `p_0` is not that later map. Setting `p_0 = −q / (2 a)` recovers the stationary later-occasion map. Stationary later variance uses `−q / (2 a)` in place of `p_0` and is not that later map when `p_0` is free. Evolving `trait + p_0 + (B / a)² v` as if it were all state is not that later map. As `Δt → ∞` with stable `a < 0` the composition approaches contemporaneous stationary `T0VAR`. As `Δt → 0+` the composition approaches `trait + p_0 + (B / a)² v`. Nonzero diffusion with `a ≥ 0` is a growing process and is kept. Equation 5 of that predetermined later-occasion variance is `λ²(trait + e^{2 a Δt} p_0 + Q_Δt + (B / a)² v) + θ + ψ`. `MANIFESTVAR` is not `Var(y_t)`. The predetermined later-occasion latent variance is not `Var(y_t)`. Stationary later observed variance is not that observed variance when `p_0` is free. The lagged covariance of §4.3 predetermined `T0VAR` is `trait + e^{a Δt} p_0 + (B / a)² v` (Driver et al., 2017, Eq. 3–4 of §4.3 predetermined first occasion; JSS PDF re-opened 2026-08-23T09:04Z). Trait and `addedTIPREDVAR` do not decay with `e^{a Δt}`. Free `T0VAR` `p_0` is not that lagged map. Setting `p_0 = −q / (2 a)` recovers the stationary lagged map. Stationary lagged covariance uses `−q / (2 a)` in place of `p_0` and is not that lagged map when `p_0` is free. Evolving `trait + p_0 + (B / a)² v` as if it were all state is not that lagged map. Later-occasion variance includes `Q_Δt` and is not that lagged map. As `Δt → ∞` with stable `a < 0` the state term vanishes. As `Δt → 0+` the composition approaches `trait + p_0 + (B / a)² v`. Equation 5 of that predetermined lagged covariance is `λ²(trait + e^{a Δt} p_0 + (B / a)² v) + ψ`. `MANIFESTVAR` does not enter. The predetermined lagged latent covariance is not that observed covariance. Predetermined later observed variance includes `Q_Δt` and `θ` and is not that lagged observed covariance. Stationary lagged observed covariance is not that observed covariance when `p_0` is free. The predetermined first-occasion variance of §4.3 predetermined `T0VAR` is `trait + p_0 + (B / a)² v`. Free `p_0` is not that map. Stationary first-occasion variance uses `−q / (2 a)` in place of `p_0` and is not that map when `p_0` is free. Lagged covariance decays the state and is not that map. Later-occasion variance includes `Q_Δt` and is not that map. Equation 5 of that predetermined first-occasion variance is `λ²(trait + p_0 + (B / a)² v) + θ + ψ`. `MANIFESTVAR` is not that first-occasion observed variance. The predetermined first-occasion latent variance is not that observed variance. Stationary first-occasion observed variance is not that observed variance when `p_0` is free. Predetermined later observed variance includes `Q_Δt` and is not that first-occasion observed variance. Later-start lagged covariance of predetermined `T0VAR` is `trait + e^{a s}(e^{2 a u} p_0 + Q_u) + (B / a)² v` (Driver et al., 2017, §4.3 `startoffset`; Eq. 4; JSS PDF re-opened 2026-08-23T10:27Z). First-occasion lagged omits `e^{a s} Q_u`. Later-occasion variance does not lag. Stationary lagged uses `−q / (2 a)`. Decaying the later total is not that map. Equation 5 of that later-start lagged covariance is `λ²` of it plus `ψ`. Independent `ε_t` does not enter. First-occasion lagged observed omits `e^{a s} Q_u`. Predetermined later observed variance includes `Q_u` and `θ` and is not that later-start lagged observed covariance. Later-start later-occasion variance of predetermined `T0VAR` is `trait + e^{2 a s}(e^{2 a u} p_0 + Q_u) + Q_s + (B / a)² v` (Driver et al., 2017, §4.3 `startoffset`; Eq. 3–4 Chapman–Kolmogorov `Q_{u+s} = e^{2 a s} Q_u + Q_s`; JSS PDF re-opened 2026-08-23T11:05Z). Later-occasion variance at `u` omits `Q_s`. Later-start lagged covariance omits `Q_s`. Stationary later uses `−q / (2 a)`. Evolving the later total as if it were all state is not that map. Ignoring `startoffset` omits `e^{2 a s} Q_u`. Equation 5 of that later-start later-occasion variance is `λ²` of it plus `θ + ψ`. `MANIFESTVAR` is not that observed variance. Page 16 `discreteDRIFTstd` is `e^{a Δt}` after strictly positive `asymDIFFUSION` `-q / (2 a)` (Driver et al., 2017, p. 16; footnote 4; §7.1; JSS PDF re-opened 2026-08-23T11:40Z). Unstandardised `e^{a Δt}` is defined for growing `a ≥ 0` and for zero diffusion and is not `discreteDRIFTstd`. The §7.1 trait-plus-state autocorrelation `(trait + e^{a Δt} p + added) / (trait + p + added)` uses `TRAITVAR` and is not `discreteDRIFTstd`. `TRAITVAR` is not the standardisation variance. Page 16 `discreteDIFFUSIONstd` is `Q_Δt / (−q / (2 a))` after strictly positive `asymDIFFUSION` `-q / (2 a)` (Driver et al., 2017, p. 16; Eq. 4; footnote 4; JSS PDF re-opened 2026-08-23T13:06Z). Unstandardised `Q_Δt` is defined for growing `a ≥ 0` and for zero diffusion and is not `discreteDIFFUSIONstd`. The continuous standardisation `−2 a` is not `discreteDIFFUSIONstd`. `Q_Δt / (trait + p + added)` uses `TRAITVAR` and is not `discreteDIFFUSIONstd`. `TRAITVAR` is not the standardisation variance. Page 16 `DIFFUSIONstd` is `q / (−q / (2 a)) = −2 a` after strictly positive `asymDIFFUSION` `-q / (2 a)` (Driver et al., 2017, p. 16; Eq. 4; footnote 4; JSS PDF re-opened 2026-08-23T13:20Z). Unstandardised `q` is defined for growing `a ≥ 0` and for zero diffusion and is not `DIFFUSIONstd`. The discrete standardisation `Q_Δt / (−q / (2 a))` depends on `Δt` and is not `DIFFUSIONstd`. `q / (trait + p + added)` uses `TRAITVAR` and is not `DIFFUSIONstd`. `TRAITVAR` is not the standardisation variance. Page 16 `DRIFTstd` is the continuous auto-effect after strictly positive `asymDIFFUSION` `-q / (2 a)` (Driver et al., 2017, p. 16; Eq. 1; footnote 4; JSS PDF re-opened 2026-08-23T13:28Z). Unstandardised `a` is defined for growing `a ≥ 0` and for zero diffusion and is not `DRIFTstd`. The discrete standardisation `e^{a Δt}` depends on the event interval and is not `DRIFTstd`. `a p / (trait + p + added)` uses `TRAITVAR` and is not `DRIFTstd`. `TRAITVAR` is not the standardisation variance. Page 16 `asymTIPREDEFFECTstd` is `(-B / a) · √v / √(-q / (2 a))` after strictly positive `asymDIFFUSION` `-q / (2 a)` and strictly positive predictor variance `v` (Driver et al., 2017, p. 16; §7.2; footnote 4; JSS PDF re-opened 2026-08-23T14:25Z). Unstandardised `-B / a` is defined for a zero coefficient and for zero predictor variance and is not `asymTIPREDEFFECTstd`. The finite-interval standardisation `A^{-1}[e^{A Δt} − I] B · √v / √p` depends on the event interval and is not `asymTIPREDEFFECTstd`. `(-B / a) · √v / √(trait + p + added)` uses `TRAITVAR` and is not `asymTIPREDEFFECTstd`. `TRAITVAR` is not the standardisation variance. Page 16 `TIPREDEFFECTstd` is `B · √v / √(-q / (2 a))` after strictly positive `asymDIFFUSION` `-q / (2 a)` and strictly positive predictor variance `v` (Driver et al., 2017, p. 16; §7.2; footnote 4; JSS PDF re-opened 2026-08-23T16:21Z). Unstandardised `B` is defined for a zero coefficient and for zero predictor variance and is not `TIPREDEFFECTstd`. The asymptotic standardisation `(-B / a) · √v / √p` is the total change and is not `TIPREDEFFECTstd`. The finite-interval standardisation `A^{-1}[e^{A Δt} − I] B · √v / √p` depends on the event interval and is not `TIPREDEFFECTstd`. `B · √v / √(trait + p + added)` uses `TRAITVAR` and is not `TIPREDEFFECTstd`. `TRAITVAR` is not the standardisation variance. Page 16 / Table 3 `T0TIPREDEFFECTstd` is `t0_b · √v / √p_0` after strictly positive free `T0VAR` `p_0` and strictly positive predictor variance `v` (Driver et al., 2017, Table 3, p. 13; p. 16; footnote 4; 2017-era ctsem `summary.ctsemFit.R`; JSS PDF re-opened 2026-08-23T17:20Z). The affected variance is free first-occasion `T0VAR`, not `asymDIFFUSION`. Unstandardised `t0_b` is defined for a zero coefficient and for zero predictor variance and is not `T0TIPREDEFFECTstd`. `TIPREDEFFECTstd` `B · √v / √(-q / (2 a))` is the continuous coefficient and is not `T0TIPREDEFFECTstd`. `asymTIPREDEFFECTstd` `(-B / a) · √v / √p` is the total change and is not `T0TIPREDEFFECTstd`. `t0_b · √v / √(trait + p_0 + added)` uses `TRAITVAR` and is not `T0TIPREDEFFECTstd`. `TRAITVAR` is not the standardisation variance. 2017-era `addedT0TIPREDVAR` is `t0_b² v` after a first-occasion time-independent predictor (Driver et al., 2017, Table 3, p. 13; p. 16; §7.2; 2017-era ctsem `summary.ctsemFit.R`; JSS PDF re-opened 2026-08-23T18:20Z). Form `t0_b` first, then square, then multiply by `v`. A zero coefficient or zero predictor variance is exactly zero. Free `T0TIPREDEFFECT` does not require `a < 0`. `(B / a)² v` is `addedTIPREDVAR` and is not this first-occasion map. `t0_b · √v / √p_0` is `T0TIPREDEFFECTstd` and is not this variance. Free `T0VAR` is not this extra TI variance. `TRAITVAR` is not this extra TI variance. Equation 5 of 2017-era `addedT0TIPREDVAR` is `λ² t0_b² v` (Driver et al., 2017, Eq. 5, p. 5; Table 3, p. 13; Table 2, p. 12; 2017-era ctsem `summary.ctsemFit.R`; JSS PDF re-opened 2026-08-23T19:10Z). Form `t0_b² v` first, then `(λ extra) λ` with `θ = 0`. A zero loading or zero extra is exactly zero. `t0_b² v` is the latent extra, not the observed extra. `λ² p_0 + θ` is first-occasion observed variance, not this extra. `λ² (B / a)² v` is Eq. 5 of `addedTIPREDVAR`, not this first-occasion observed extra. `MANIFESTVAR` `θ` is not this extra. Equation 5 of §7.2 `addedTIPREDVAR` is `λ² (B / a)² v` (Driver et al., 2017, Eq. 5, p. 5; Table 2, p. 12; §7.2, pp. 20–21; 2017-era ctsem `summary.ctsemFit.R`; JSS PDF re-opened 2026-08-23T19:23Z). Form `(B / a)² v` first, then `(λ extra) λ` with `θ = 0`. A zero loading or zero extra is exactly zero. Lasting asymptotic extra requires `a < 0`. `(B / a)² v` is the latent extra, not the observed extra. `λ² t0_b² v` is first-occasion extra observed TI variance, not this extra. `λ² p + θ` is stationary observed variance, not this extra. `MANIFESTVAR` `θ` is not this extra. Page 16 `TDPREDEFFECTstd` is `m · √v / √(-q / (2 a))` after strictly positive `asymDIFFUSION` and strictly positive time-dependent predictor variance. Unstandardised `M` is not `TDPREDEFFECTstd`. `TIPREDEFFECTstd` is not `TDPREDEFFECTstd` even when `M = B`. intercept-style `A^{-1}[e^{A Δt} − I] M · √v / √p` is not `TDPREDEFFECTstd`. `m · √v / √(trait + p + added)` uses `TRAITVAR` and is not `TDPREDEFFECTstd`.

Evolving from that stationary start with `CINT` and `TIPREDEFFECT` stays at the stationary mean. Equation 1 is the latent SDE, not the measurement model. Form `(λ p) λ` then add `θ`, then add `ψ`. `MANIFESTVAR` is `Θ`, not `Var(y)`. `MANIFESTTRAITVAR` is `Ψ_τ`, not `Θ`. `TRAITVAR` is latent and scaled by `λ²`. `Var(η)` is not `Var(y)`.
+- Do not use the difference quotient as a continuous-time rate. The scalar map is `a = ln(φ) / Δt` on event time. Discrete lags from unequal event intervals are not one coefficient; remap them through that log-rate. Binary64 `exp(a Δt) = 0` is not a discrete lag. A constant predictor's discrete effect is Voelkle et al. (2012, Eq. 12), evaluated as `a_yx (expm1(z) / a_xx)` with `z = a_xx Δt` so a finite result is not lost when `z` overflows to `-∞` or when `a_yx Δt` overflows. When `expm1(z)` overflows at a finite `z`, rewrite in log space; a zero continuous effect is exactly zero; an overflowing `a_yx/a_xx` rewrite term fails closed. The first-order product is the underflow limit of that equation, not the general constant-predictor discrete effect. A time-varying predictor whose sampling interval equals its constancy interval uses Voelkle et al. (2012, Eq. 14): `b* = a_yx Δt`. Unmatched intervals fail closed (Oud & Jansen, 2000, unread). Discrete process noise is Driver et al. (2017, Eq. 3): `Q_Δt = 0.5 q (expm1(z) / a)` with `z = 2 (a Δt)` and `q = G G⊤ ≥ 0`; do not form `2 a` first; `a = 0` and `z → 0` recover `q Δt`; a zero diffusion is exactly zero; an overflowing rewrite scale `0.5 q / a` fails closed; this is not a Kalman filter. `Q_Δt` is `cov(η_t | η_{t-1})`, not `Var(η_t)`. The lagged covariance is `exp(a Δt) p` and the unconditional variance is `exp(2 a Δt) p + Q_Δt` (Driver et al., 2017, Eq. 3–4, pp. 4–5; JSS has no numbered §2.2). A zero diffusion whose `2 (a Δt)` overflows to `+∞` is not a finite `Var(η_t)`. The stationary within-subject variance is the `Δt → ∞` limit of Eq. 4: `-q / (2 a)` for stable `a < 0` (JSS p. 16 `asymDIFFUSION`; §4.3). When `2 a` is finite, form `q / -(2 a)` so `q / a` overflow does not lose a finite result (`q = MAX`, `a = -0.75` → `MAX / 1.5`). When `2 a` overflows, form `(q / a) * -0.5`. Do not form `0.5 q` first (`q = from_bits(1)` underflows). `a ≥ 0` has no finite stationary variance. Finite-interval `Q_Δt` is not that limit. Trait-plus-state variance is `trait + state` and lagged covariance is `trait + exp(a Δt) p` (Driver et al., 2017, §4.3, p. 9). Trait variance is not process noise and not `asymDIFFUSION`. Evolving the summed variance as if it were all state is not that map. This is not RI-CLPM. Observed-indicator variance is `λ² Var(η) + θ` when `MANIFESTTRAITVAR` is zero and `λ² Var(η) + θ + ψ` otherwise (Driver et al., 2017, Eq. 5, p. 5; Table 2, p. 12). Lagged observed covariance is `λ² cov(η_t, η_{t-1}) + ψ`; `MANIFESTVAR` does not enter. Observed-indicator mean is `τ + λ μ` (Driver et al., 2017, Eq. 5; Table 2, p. 12). `MANIFESTMEANS` is `τ`, not `E(y)`. `E(η)` is not `E(y)`. `CINT` is not `MANIFESTMEANS`. `T0MEANS` is not `E(y)`. The discrete latent mean is `μ_t = exp(a Δt) μ_0 + (exp(a Δt) − 1)/a κ` (Driver et al., 2017, Eq. 3, p. 4; Table 2, p. 12). `T0MEANS` is not `μ_t`. `CINT` is not that discrete increment. A zero drift is `κ Δt`. Underflow of `exp(a Δt)` to `+0` drops the carried `T0MEANS` and keeps `−κ / a`. The evolved observed mean is `τ + λ μ_t` (Driver et al., 2017, Eq. 5 of that Eq. 3 map). The first-occasion map `τ + λ μ_0` is not `E(y_t)`. `μ_t` is not `E(y_t)`. The contemporaneous time-dependent predictor impulse is `m x` (Driver et al., 2017, Eq. 3 fourth summand; Table 2 `TDPREDEFFECT` is `M`). Form `μ_t` first, then add `m x`. `TDPREDEFFECT` is not `CINT`. `M x` is not `A^{-1}[e^{A Δt} − I] B z` and is not Voelkle et al. (2012, Eq. 14). The §7.2 level-change form is not that impulse. The observed mean of that contemporaneous impulse is `τ + λ(μ_t + m x)` (Driver et al., 2017, Eq. 5 of the Eq. 3 fourth-summand composition). The evolved map `τ + λ μ_t` is not that observed mean. The carry map `τ + λ(μ_t + e^{a(t−u)} m x)` is not that observed mean when `u ≠ t`. The evolved-plus-impulse latent mean is not `E(y_t)`. The time-independent predictor increment is `A^{-1}[e^{A Δt} − I] B z` (Driver et al., 2017, Eq. 3 second summand; Table 2 `TIPREDEFFECT` is `B`). Form `B z` first, then the discrete intercept map. A zero drift is `B z Δt`. `TIPREDEFFECT` is `B`, not that discrete increment. `A^{-1}[e^{A Δt} − I] B z` is not `CINT`, not `M x`, and not Voelkle et al. (2012, Eq. 14). The observed mean of that increment is `τ + λ(μ_t + A^{-1}[e^{A Δt} − I] B z)` (Driver et al., 2017, Eq. 5 of the Eq. 3 printed addend after the `T0MEANS` carry and the `CINT` increment). The evolved map `τ + λ μ_t` is not that observed mean. The contemporaneous map `τ + λ(μ_t + m x)` is not that observed mean. The carry map `τ + λ(μ_t + e^{a(t−u)} m x)` is not that observed mean when `u ≠ t`. The evolved-plus-increment latent mean is not `E(y_t)`. The within-interval time-dependent impulse carry is `e^{A(t−u)} M x` for `t0 < u < t` (Driver et al., 2017, Eq. 1–2 Green-function integral of Eq. 2; §7.2 dissipation). Form `m x` first, then `e^{a(t−u)} m x`. A zero drift is `m x` with no dissipation. Underflow of `e^{a(t−u)}` to `+0` is vanishing dissipation and is kept. `e^{A(t−u)} M x` is not the contemporaneous Dirac, not `CINT`, not `TIPREDEFFECT`, and not Voelkle et al. (2012, Eq. 14). An impulse at `u = t` is the contemporaneous map. An impulse at `u ≤ t0` is already in `η(t0)`. The observed mean of that carry is `τ + λ(μ_t + e^{a(t−u)} m x)` (Driver et al., 2017, Eq. 5 of the Eq. 1–2 carried latent mean). The evolved map `τ + λ μ_t` is not that observed mean. The contemporaneous map `τ + λ(μ_t + m x)` is not that observed mean when `u ≠ t`. `MANIFESTMEANS` is not `E(y_t)`. The carried latent mean is not `E(y_t)`. The first-occasion time-independent predictor shift is `t0_b z` (Driver et al., 2017, Table 3 `T0TIPREDEFFECT`; Eq. 3 first summand). Form `t0_b z` first, then `e^{a Δt} t0_b z`. Form `μ_t` first, then add that carry. A zero drift is `t0_b z`. Underflow of `e^{a Δt}` to `+0` is a vanishing carry of the first-occasion shift and is kept. `t0_b z` is not `A^{-1}[e^{A Δt} − I] B z`, not `CINT`, and not `M x`. `e^{A Δt} t0_b z` is not `t0_b z`. `T0TIPREDEFFECT` is the coefficient, not the shift. The observed mean of that first-occasion carry is `τ + λ(μ_t + e^{a Δt} t0_b z)` (Driver et al., 2017, Eq. 5 of the Table 3 / Eq. 3 first-summand composition). The evolved map `τ + λ μ_t` is not that observed mean. The process-increment map `τ + λ(μ_t + A^{-1}[e^{A Δt} − I] B z)` is not that observed mean. The contemporaneous map `τ + λ(μ_t + m x)` is not that observed mean. The impulse-carry map `τ + λ(μ_t + e^{a(t−u)} m x)` is not that observed mean when `u ≠ t0`. The evolved-plus-carry latent mean is not `E(y_t)`. The first-occasion time-dependent predictor shift is `t0_m x0` (Driver et al., 2017, Table 3 `T0TDPREDEFFECT`; Eq. 3 first summand; JSS PDF re-opened 2026-08-20T19:10Z). Form `t0_m x0` first, then `e^{a Δt} t0_m x0`. Form `μ_t` first, then add that carry. A zero drift is `t0_m x0`. Underflow of `e^{a Δt}` to `+0` is a vanishing carry of the first-occasion shift and is kept. `t0_m x0` is not `M x`, not `e^{A(t−u)} M x` for `t0 < u < t`, not `t0_b z`, not `A^{-1}[e^{A Δt} − I] B z`, and not `CINT`. `e^{A Δt} t0_m x0` is not `t0_m x0`. `T0TDPREDEFFECT` is the coefficient, not the shift. An impulse at `u ≤ t0` that used `M` is already in `η(t0)` as `TDPREDEFFECT`, not as `T0TDPREDEFFECT`. The observed mean of that first-occasion TD carry is `τ + λ(μ_t + e^{a Δt} t0_m x0)` (Driver et al., 2017, Eq. 5 of the Table 3 / Eq. 3 first-summand TD composition; JSS PDF re-opened 2026-08-20T19:07Z). The evolved map `τ + λ μ_t` is not that observed mean. The process-increment map `τ + λ(μ_t + A^{-1}[e^{A Δt} − I] B z)` is not that observed mean. The contemporaneous map `τ + λ(μ_t + m x)` is not that observed mean. The impulse-carry map `τ + λ(μ_t + e^{a(t−u)} m x)` is not that observed mean when `u ≠ t0`. The first-occasion TI map `τ + λ(μ_t + e^{a Δt} t0_b z)` is not that observed mean. The evolved-plus-carry latent mean is not `E(y_t)`. The lasting level-change `CINT` is `κ = −a m x` (Driver et al., 2017, §7.2, pp. 20–21; JSS PDF re-opened 2026-08-20T19:45Z). Form `m x` first, then multiply by `−a`. Stable `a < 0` is required so `−κ / a = m x` is an equilibrium offset. `a ≥ 0` cannot hold a new process mean. `−a m x` is not the dissipating Dirac `m x`, not a free `CINT`, and not `A^{-1}[e^{A Δt} − I] B z`. The extra near-zero-drift latent process also named in §7.2 is a different specification and is not this `CINT` setting. Equation 3 maps that intercept as `(1 − e^{a Δt}) m x` (JSS PDF re-opened 2026-08-20T19:50Z). Form the level-change `CINT` first, then the discrete intercept map. Underflow of `e^{a Δt}` to `+0` keeps `m x`. `(1 − e^{a Δt}) m x` is not `m x`, not `κ`, and not `A^{-1}[e^{A Δt} − I] B z`. The printed §7.2 lasting level change is an extra near-zero-drift latent process (Driver et al., 2017, §7.2, pp. 22–23; JSS PDF re-opened 2026-08-20T23:10Z). `T0MEANS`, `CINT`, `T0VAR`, `DIFFUSION`, and `TRAITVAR` of that process are fixed to 0; `TDPREDEFFECT` on it is fixed to 1; its `DRIFT` diagonal is very close to 0 (printed example `−0.000001`; precisely 0 causes computational problems); the original process is driven by the `DRIFT` coupling `a_{ηξ}`. After a unit identification impulse the scalar contribution is `a_{ηξ} x (e^{ε Δt} − e^{a Δt}) / (ε − a)` (`ε = a` is `a_{ηξ} x Δt e^{a Δt}`). Form `a_{ηξ} x` first. A zero coupling or zero predictor is exactly zero. `ε ≥ 0` fails closed. That contribution is not `κ = −a m x`, not `(1 − e^{a Δt}) m x`, and not the dissipating Dirac `m x`. The observed mean of that extra-process contribution is `τ + λ(μ_t + a_{ηξ} x (e^{ε Δt} − e^{a Δt}) / (ε − a))` (Driver et al., 2017, Eq. 5 of that §7.2 contribution; JSS PDF re-opened 2026-08-21T06:12Z). The extra process has `LAMBDA` 0 and is not an observed indicator. Original indicators load on the original process after the `DRIFT` coupling. The evolved map `τ + λ μ_t` is not that observed mean. The contemporaneous map `τ + λ(μ_t + m x)` is not that observed mean. The contribution is not `E(y_t)`. The evolved-plus-contribution latent mean is not `E(y_t)`. `T0TDPREDEFFECT` on the extra process begins at `t = 0` and uses `Δt = t − t0` for both the original-process evolution and the extra drive. `TDPREDEFFECT` after `t0` uses `t − u` with `t0 < u < t` for the extra drive while `μ_t` still uses `Δt`. The observed mean of that after-t0 extra-process contribution is `τ + λ(μ_t + a_{ηξ} x (e^{ε(t−u)} − e^{a(t−u)}) / (ε − a))` (Driver et al., 2017, Eq. 5 of that §7.2 after-t0 contribution; JSS PDF re-opened 2026-08-21T06:32Z). The first-occasion extra-process observed mean is not that observed mean when `u ≠ t0`. The impulse-carry map `τ + λ(μ_t + e^{a(t−u)} m x)` is a Dirac on the original process and is not that `DRIFT` drive. An impulse at `u = t0` or `u = t` is not interior. The asymptotic time-independent predictor effect is `-B z / a` (Driver et al., 2017, §7.2, pp. 20–21; JSS PDF opened 2026-08-21T13:08Z). Form `B z` first, then divide by `-a`. Stable `a < 0` is required. `a ≥ 0` cannot hold a finite process-mean change. `-B z / a` is not the coefficient `B`, not `A^{-1}[e^{A Δt} − I] B z`, not `CINT`, and not `M x`. The asymptotic time-independent predictor variance is `(B / a)² v` (Driver et al., 2017, §7.2, pp. 20–21 `addedTIPREDVAR`). Form the unit asymptotic effect first, then square, then multiply by `v`. `(B / a)² v` is not `TRAITVAR`, not `asymDIFFUSION`, and not `-B z / a`. The asymptotic continuous intercept is `-κ / a` (Driver et al., 2017, Table 2, p. 12 `asymCINT`; Eq. 3 as `Δt → ∞`; JSS PDF opened 2026-08-21T16:13Z). Form `κ` first, then divide by `-a`. Stable `a < 0` is required. `-κ / a` is not `κ`, not `A^{-1}[e^{A Δt} − I] κ`, not `T0MEANS`, and not `-B z / a`. The p. 16 stationary `T0MEANS` constraint is `-κ / a + −B z / a`. Form the intercept contribution first, then include the TI extra effect, then add. That constrained first-occasion mean is not free `T0MEANS`, not `asymCINT` alone, not `asymTIPREDEFFECT` alone, and not the finite-interval discrete latent mean. Equation 5 of that constrained mean is `τ + λ(−κ / a + −B z / a)` (Driver et al., 2017, §4.3, pp. 9–10; Eq. 5, p. 5; JSS PDF re-opened 2026-08-21T20:07Z). Form the stationary latent mean first, then `τ + λ` of that mean. `τ + λ μ_0` for free `T0MEANS` is not that composition. `τ + λ(−κ / a)` is not that composition when `B z ≠ 0`. `τ + λ μ_t` is not that composition. `MANIFESTMEANS` is not `E(y_0)`. The constrained latent mean is not `E(y_0)`. The p. 16 constrained first-occasion variance `trait + −q / (2 a) + (B / a)² v` is not free `T0VAR`, not `asymDIFFUSION` alone, not `TRAITVAR` alone, not `addedTIPREDVAR` alone, and not the finite-interval discrete latent variance. Eq. 5 of that constrained variance is `λ²(trait + −q / (2 a) + (B / a)² v) + θ + ψ` (JSS PDF re-opened 2026-08-22T03:20Z; form the stationary latent variance first, then `λ² p + θ + ψ`; `λ² p_0` is not that observed variance; `λ²(−q / (2 a)) + θ` is not that observed variance when `TRAITVAR` or `addedTIPREDVAR` is nonzero; `MANIFESTVAR` is not `Var(y_0)`; the constrained latent variance is not `Var(y_0)`). The lagged covariance of that constrained process is `trait + e^{a Δt}(−q / (2 a)) + (B / a)² v` (Driver et al., 2017, Eq. 3–4 of §4.3 / p. 16 `T0VAR`; JSS PDF re-opened 2026-08-22T19:13Z). Trait and `addedTIPREDVAR` do not decay with `e^{a Δt}`. Contemporaneous `T0VAR` is not that lagged map. Decaying the constrained total as if it were all state is not that lagged map. Equation 5 of that lagged covariance is `λ²(trait + e^{a Δt}(−q / (2 a)) + (B / a)² v) + ψ`. `Θ` does not enter. Contemporaneous `Var(y_0)` is not that lagged observed covariance. The lagged latent covariance is not that observed covariance. The later-occasion variance of that constrained process is `trait + e^{2 a Δt}(−q / (2 a)) + Q_Δt + (B / a)² v` (Driver et al., 2017, Eq. 3–4 of §4.3 / p. 16 `T0VAR`; JSS PDF re-opened 2026-08-22T23:12Z). Trait and `addedTIPREDVAR` do not enter `Q_Δt`. Under stationarity that composition equals contemporaneous `T0VAR`. Evolving the constrained total as if it were all state is not that later map. The lagged covariance omits `Q_Δt` and is not that later map. `Q_Δt` is not that later map. Equation 5 of that later-occasion variance is `λ²(trait + e^{2 a Δt}(−q / (2 a)) + Q_Δt + (B / a)² v) + θ + ψ`. The lagged observed covariance omits `Q_Δt` and `θ`. `MANIFESTVAR` is not `Var(y_t)`. The later-occasion latent variance is not `Var(y_t)`. The later-occasion variance of §4.3 predetermined `T0VAR` is `trait + e^{2 a Δt} p_0 + Q_Δt + (B / a)² v` (Driver et al., 2017, Eq. 3–4 of §4.3 predetermined first occasion; JSS PDF re-opened 2026-08-23T05:12Z). Trait and `addedTIPREDVAR` do not enter `Q_Δt`. Free `T0VAR` `p_0` is not that later map. Setting `p_0 = −q / (2 a)` recovers the stationary later-occasion map. Stationary later variance uses `−q / (2 a)` in place of `p_0` and is not that later map when `p_0` is free. Evolving `trait + p_0 + (B / a)² v` as if it were all state is not that later map. As `Δt → ∞` with stable `a < 0` the composition approaches contemporaneous stationary `T0VAR`. As `Δt → 0+` the composition approaches `trait + p_0 + (B / a)² v`. Nonzero diffusion with `a ≥ 0` is a growing process and is kept. Equation 5 of that predetermined later-occasion variance is `λ²(trait + e^{2 a Δt} p_0 + Q_Δt + (B / a)² v) + θ + ψ`. `MANIFESTVAR` is not `Var(y_t)`. The predetermined later-occasion latent variance is not `Var(y_t)`. Stationary later observed variance is not that observed variance when `p_0` is free. The lagged covariance of §4.3 predetermined `T0VAR` is `trait + e^{a Δt} p_0 + (B / a)² v` (Driver et al., 2017, Eq. 3–4 of §4.3 predetermined first occasion; JSS PDF re-opened 2026-08-23T09:04Z). Trait and `addedTIPREDVAR` do not decay with `e^{a Δt}`. Free `T0VAR` `p_0` is not that lagged map. Setting `p_0 = −q / (2 a)` recovers the stationary lagged map. Stationary lagged covariance uses `−q / (2 a)` in place of `p_0` and is not that lagged map when `p_0` is free. Evolving `trait + p_0 + (B / a)² v` as if it were all state is not that lagged map. Later-occasion variance includes `Q_Δt` and is not that lagged map. As `Δt → ∞` with stable `a < 0` the state term vanishes. As `Δt → 0+` the composition approaches `trait + p_0 + (B / a)² v`. Equation 5 of that predetermined lagged covariance is `λ²(trait + e^{a Δt} p_0 + (B / a)² v) + ψ`. `MANIFESTVAR` does not enter. The predetermined lagged latent covariance is not that observed covariance. Predetermined later observed variance includes `Q_Δt` and `θ` and is not that lagged observed covariance. Stationary lagged observed covariance is not that observed covariance when `p_0` is free. The predetermined first-occasion variance of §4.3 predetermined `T0VAR` is `trait + p_0 + (B / a)² v`. Free `p_0` is not that map. Stationary first-occasion variance uses `−q / (2 a)` in place of `p_0` and is not that map when `p_0` is free. Lagged covariance decays the state and is not that map. Later-occasion variance includes `Q_Δt` and is not that map. Equation 5 of that predetermined first-occasion variance is `λ²(trait + p_0 + (B / a)² v) + θ + ψ`. `MANIFESTVAR` is not that first-occasion observed variance. The predetermined first-occasion latent variance is not that observed variance. Stationary first-occasion observed variance is not that observed variance when `p_0` is free. Predetermined later observed variance includes `Q_Δt` and is not that first-occasion observed variance. Later-start lagged covariance of predetermined `T0VAR` is `trait + e^{a s}(e^{2 a u} p_0 + Q_u) + (B / a)² v` (Driver et al., 2017, §4.3 `startoffset`; Eq. 4; JSS PDF re-opened 2026-08-23T10:27Z). First-occasion lagged omits `e^{a s} Q_u`. Later-occasion variance does not lag. Stationary lagged uses `−q / (2 a)`. Decaying the later total is not that map. Equation 5 of that later-start lagged covariance is `λ²` of it plus `ψ`. Independent `ε_t` does not enter. First-occasion lagged observed omits `e^{a s} Q_u`. Predetermined later observed variance includes `Q_u` and `θ` and is not that later-start lagged observed covariance. Later-start later-occasion variance of predetermined `T0VAR` is `trait + e^{2 a s}(e^{2 a u} p_0 + Q_u) + Q_s + (B / a)² v` (Driver et al., 2017, §4.3 `startoffset`; Eq. 3–4 Chapman–Kolmogorov `Q_{u+s} = e^{2 a s} Q_u + Q_s`; JSS PDF re-opened 2026-08-23T11:05Z). Later-occasion variance at `u` omits `Q_s`. Later-start lagged covariance omits `Q_s`. Stationary later uses `−q / (2 a)`. Evolving the later total as if it were all state is not that map. Ignoring `startoffset` omits `e^{2 a s} Q_u`. Equation 5 of that later-start later-occasion variance is `λ²` of it plus `θ + ψ`. `MANIFESTVAR` is not that observed variance. Page 16 `discreteDRIFTstd` is `e^{a Δt}` after strictly positive `asymDIFFUSION` `-q / (2 a)` (Driver et al., 2017, p. 16; footnote 4; §7.1; JSS PDF re-opened 2026-08-23T11:40Z). Unstandardised `e^{a Δt}` is defined for growing `a ≥ 0` and for zero diffusion and is not `discreteDRIFTstd`. The §7.1 trait-plus-state autocorrelation `(trait + e^{a Δt} p + added) / (trait + p + added)` uses `TRAITVAR` and is not `discreteDRIFTstd`. `TRAITVAR` is not the standardisation variance. Page 16 `discreteDIFFUSIONstd` is `Q_Δt / (−q / (2 a))` after strictly positive `asymDIFFUSION` `-q / (2 a)` (Driver et al., 2017, p. 16; Eq. 4; footnote 4; JSS PDF re-opened 2026-08-23T13:06Z). Unstandardised `Q_Δt` is defined for growing `a ≥ 0` and for zero diffusion and is not `discreteDIFFUSIONstd`. The continuous standardisation `−2 a` is not `discreteDIFFUSIONstd`. `Q_Δt / (trait + p + added)` uses `TRAITVAR` and is not `discreteDIFFUSIONstd`. `TRAITVAR` is not the standardisation variance. Page 16 `DIFFUSIONstd` is `q / (−q / (2 a)) = −2 a` after strictly positive `asymDIFFUSION` `-q / (2 a)` (Driver et al., 2017, p. 16; Eq. 4; footnote 4; JSS PDF re-opened 2026-08-23T13:20Z). Unstandardised `q` is defined for growing `a ≥ 0` and for zero diffusion and is not `DIFFUSIONstd`. The discrete standardisation `Q_Δt / (−q / (2 a))` depends on `Δt` and is not `DIFFUSIONstd`. `q / (trait + p + added)` uses `TRAITVAR` and is not `DIFFUSIONstd`. `TRAITVAR` is not the standardisation variance. Page 16 `DRIFTstd` is the continuous auto-effect after strictly positive `asymDIFFUSION` `-q / (2 a)` (Driver et al., 2017, p. 16; Eq. 1; footnote 4; JSS PDF re-opened 2026-08-23T13:28Z). Unstandardised `a` is defined for growing `a ≥ 0` and for zero diffusion and is not `DRIFTstd`. The discrete standardisation `e^{a Δt}` depends on the event interval and is not `DRIFTstd`. `a p / (trait + p + added)` uses `TRAITVAR` and is not `DRIFTstd`. `TRAITVAR` is not the standardisation variance. Page 16 `asymTIPREDEFFECTstd` is `(-B / a) · √v / √(-q / (2 a))` after strictly positive `asymDIFFUSION` `-q / (2 a)` and strictly positive predictor variance `v` (Driver et al., 2017, p. 16; §7.2; footnote 4; JSS PDF re-opened 2026-08-23T14:25Z). Unstandardised `-B / a` is defined for a zero coefficient and for zero predictor variance and is not `asymTIPREDEFFECTstd`. The finite-interval standardisation `A^{-1}[e^{A Δt} − I] B · √v / √p` depends on the event interval and is not `asymTIPREDEFFECTstd`. `(-B / a) · √v / √(trait + p + added)` uses `TRAITVAR` and is not `asymTIPREDEFFECTstd`. `TRAITVAR` is not the standardisation variance. Page 16 `TIPREDEFFECTstd` is `B · √v / √(-q / (2 a))` after strictly positive `asymDIFFUSION` `-q / (2 a)` and strictly positive predictor variance `v` (Driver et al., 2017, p. 16; §7.2; footnote 4; JSS PDF re-opened 2026-08-23T16:21Z). Unstandardised `B` is defined for a zero coefficient and for zero predictor variance and is not `TIPREDEFFECTstd`. The asymptotic standardisation `(-B / a) · √v / √p` is the total change and is not `TIPREDEFFECTstd`. The finite-interval standardisation `A^{-1}[e^{A Δt} − I] B · √v / √p` depends on the event interval and is not `TIPREDEFFECTstd`. `B · √v / √(trait + p + added)` uses `TRAITVAR` and is not `TIPREDEFFECTstd`. `TRAITVAR` is not the standardisation variance. Page 16 / Table 3 `T0TIPREDEFFECTstd` is `t0_b · √v / √p_0` after strictly positive free `T0VAR` `p_0` and strictly positive predictor variance `v` (Driver et al., 2017, Table 3, p. 13; p. 16; footnote 4; 2017-era ctsem `summary.ctsemFit.R`; JSS PDF re-opened 2026-08-23T17:20Z). The affected variance is free first-occasion `T0VAR`, not `asymDIFFUSION`. Unstandardised `t0_b` is defined for a zero coefficient and for zero predictor variance and is not `T0TIPREDEFFECTstd`. `TIPREDEFFECTstd` `B · √v / √(-q / (2 a))` is the continuous coefficient and is not `T0TIPREDEFFECTstd`. `asymTIPREDEFFECTstd` `(-B / a) · √v / √p` is the total change and is not `T0TIPREDEFFECTstd`. `t0_b · √v / √(trait + p_0 + added)` uses `TRAITVAR` and is not `T0TIPREDEFFECTstd`. `TRAITVAR` is not the standardisation variance. 2017-era `addedT0TIPREDVAR` is `t0_b² v` after a first-occasion time-independent predictor (Driver et al., 2017, Table 3, p. 13; p. 16; §7.2; 2017-era ctsem `summary.ctsemFit.R`; JSS PDF re-opened 2026-08-23T18:20Z). Form `t0_b` first, then square, then multiply by `v`. A zero coefficient or zero predictor variance is exactly zero. Free `T0TIPREDEFFECT` does not require `a < 0`. `(B / a)² v` is `addedTIPREDVAR` and is not this first-occasion map. `t0_b · √v / √p_0` is `T0TIPREDEFFECTstd` and is not this variance. Free `T0VAR` is not this extra TI variance. `TRAITVAR` is not this extra TI variance. Equation 5 of 2017-era `addedT0TIPREDVAR` is `λ² t0_b² v` (Driver et al., 2017, Eq. 5, p. 5; Table 3, p. 13; Table 2, p. 12; 2017-era ctsem `summary.ctsemFit.R`; JSS PDF re-opened 2026-08-23T19:10Z). Form `t0_b² v` first, then `(λ extra) λ` with `θ = 0`. A zero loading or zero extra is exactly zero. `t0_b² v` is the latent extra, not the observed extra. `λ² p_0 + θ` is first-occasion observed variance, not this extra. `λ² (B / a)² v` is Eq. 5 of `addedTIPREDVAR`, not this first-occasion observed extra. `MANIFESTVAR` `θ` is not this extra.

 - Separate cluster means before within-unit lag. CWC plus an event-time lag is not DSEM. Subtracting the person-specific mean from a raw autoregressive series does not isolate the lagged within-person effect (Curran & Bauer, 2011, pp. 607–608); already-centered residuals with irregular event intervals use the exact scalar map.
 - Do not treat the CWC cluster-mean coefficient as the between-cluster effect. It is the contextual effect `between − within` (Enders & Tofighi, 2007, Table 2, pp. 124–127).
 - Never use future-available evidence in historical model fits.

 The executable multilevel slice is cluster-mean centering (CWC) plus within/between OLS, the CWC contextual effect (`between − within`), and Kish-weighted slopes. Enders and Tofighi (2007, Table 2, pp. 124–127) show that the CWC cluster-mean coefficient is the contextual effect, not the between-cluster effect. It is not DSEM and not RI-CLPM. The executable temporal slice maps a discrete lag through the exact scalar exponential `a = ln(φ) / Δt` on event time only (Voelkle, Oud, Davidov, & Schmidt, 2012, Eq. 7; Driver, Oud, & Voelkle, 2017, Eq. 3), recovers the forward map `φ(Δt) = exp(a Δt)`, remaps a discrete lag onto another event interval through that log-rate, recovers the exact scalar discrete effect of a constant predictor (Voelkle et al., 2012, Eq. 12) as `a_yx (expm1(z) / a_xx)` with `z = a_xx Δt` so a finite result is not lost when `z` overflows to `-∞` or when `a_yx Δt` overflows, and in log space when `expm1(z)` overflows at a finite `z` (`a_yx = 0` is exactly zero; an overflowing `a_yx/a_xx` rewrite term fails closed), recovers the first-order discrete effect of a time-varying predictor with matched sampling and constancy intervals as `a_yx Δt` (Voelkle et al., 2012, Eq. 14; ZORA accepted manuscript p. 21; not Eq. 12; unmatched intervals fail closed because Oud & Jansen, 2000, is unread), recovers the exact scalar discrete process noise `Q_Δt = 0.5 q (expm1(z) / a)` with `z = 2 (a Δt)` and `q = G G⊤ ≥ 0` (Driver et al., 2017, Eq. 3;

Subtracting the person-specific mean from a raw autoregressive series is not the lagged within-person residual (Curran & Bauer, 2011, pp. 607–608). Metric/weak invariance licenses shared metric meaning only. Latent-mean comparison requires strong (equal loading and intercept) or strict invariance (Putnick & Bornstein, 2016, PMC5145197 opened 2026-08-19T22:15Z: scalar is required for latent means; residual invariance is not). Two-observation series have no residual degrees of freedom and cap at strong/scalar; identically-zero OLS residual variance is not strict. This two-group OLS gate is not MGCFA.

+The executable standardised discrete TDPRED slice recovers Driver et al. (2017, p. 16 `discreteTDPREDEFFECTstd`) as `e^{a Δt} m · √v / √p` after strictly positive `asymDIFFUSION` and strictly positive `TDPREDVAR`. Unstandardised `e^{a Δt} m` is not that map. `TDPREDEFFECTstd` does not depend on `Δt`. `discreteDRIFTstd` `e^{a Δt}` is not that map. Intercept-style `A^{-1}[e^{A Δt} − I] M · √v / √p` is discreteCINT arithmetic on `M` and is not that map. Trait-scaled totals are not that residual map.
