Verified successor — closed after complete valid-delta inheritance

#310 is the surviving Longitudinal Modeling vehicle. This child is closed only because every valid scientific, test, contract, documentation, and release-note delta has been verified on the survivor; invalid wrong-owner or scientifically weaker deltas are intentionally not copied.

Child head at verification: c451587e288ba119aebda67addee382106daf670. Survivor exact head at verification: #310 919435109d59469383e23aca4d18104f8a02daf0.

Valid deltas inherited by #310

  • Hamaker Eq. 1a scientific boundary: docs/research/occasion-mean-event-time-composition.md and crates/longitudinal_core/src/occasion_mean.rs retain x_it = μ_t + p_it, distinguish occasion mean from person-mean CWC and sample-wide grand mean, and refuse promotion of the residual lag to a within-person/RI-CLPM claim.
  • Known-rate and same-panel regression evidence: crates/longitudinal_core/tests/occasion_mean_event_time_contract.rs contains the owner-correct known-drift recovery and occasion-vs-CWC distinction, plus stronger signed-zero, duplicate-unit, sparse/non-finite, singleton-wave, permutation, intermediate-overflow, and minimum-subnormal ties-to-even cases. The dedicated research note records the successor commits and explicitly identifies the feat(psychometric): recover Hamaker Eq. 1a occasion-mean event-time lag #486 claims that were ported.
  • DDD/ADR authority: docs/adr/longitudinal-modeling-ownership-addendum.md clarifies that occasion-mean event-time composition belongs to Longitudinal Modeling / longitudinal_core, while reusable static psychometric arithmetic remains fast-mlsirm-owned. It explicitly records the feat(psychometric): recover Hamaker Eq. 1a occasion-mean event-time lag #486 fold and its verification surface.
  • Architecture/PRD/research ownership: feat(longitudinal): consolidate lagged correlation and discreteDRIFTstd #310 carries ARCHITECTURE.md, docs/product/prd-v0.4-amendment-longitudinal-time-ownership.md, docs/research/multilevel-event-time-recovery.md, and the dedicated occasion-mean note under the correct bounded context rather than extending psychometric_core ownership.
  • Operational release note: survivor commit db335d904ccc43dd0af7982c34df83008c968ef6 preserves the child’s valid operational delta as CHANGELOG.d/longitudinal-occasion-mean-event-time.md. Repository precedent (docs/verification/project-history-parent-restack.md) explicitly uses CHANGELOG.d to retain a child release note during non-destructive stacked consolidation when root CHANGELOG.md is shared, so retaining the fragment is complete successor inheritance rather than loss of the release delta.
  • Primary-source trace: Hamaker, Kuiper, and Grasman (2015) is retained with DOI and explicit claim boundary in the dedicated Longitudinal research note; no mixed Z KST timestamp is carried as scientific evidence.

Child deltas intentionally rejected

  • psychometric_core Cargo/export/error/event-time implementation changes: wrong bounded-context owner for temporal composition.
  • Raw event_time.to_bits() occasion identity: would split numeric -0.0 and +0.0; the survivor canonicalizes numeric zero.
  • Naive sum/count occasion mean and associated overflow-failure expectations: scientifically weaker than the survivor’s deterministic scaled compensated mean, which preserves representable results and binary64 ties-to-even.
  • ARCHITECTURE.md, ADR 0005, and posterior-ESEM wording that would place the temporal slice in psychometric_core: rejected because the survivor’s DDD ownership addendum and architecture put it in Longitudinal Modeling.
  • Mixed 2026-09-03T06:07Z KST provenance wording: invalid timezone notation and not required for the primary-source evidence.

This closure is therefore a verified-successor consolidation, not a PR-count-only close. No child-head CI/review evidence is transferred to #310; current-head workflow and review gates on the survivor remain mandatory.

Form p_it = x_it − μ_t on aligned waves and map consecutive residuals
through Voelkle et al. (2012, Eq. 7). Those residuals still contain
trait-like between-person deviations, so the recovered rate is refused
as a within-person lag. This is not RI-CLPM, not CWC, not the #332
sample grand mean, and not DSEM.

Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to 501d0

The PR adds occasion-mean event-time lag recovery and a fail-closed semantic guard, while documentation still contains incorrect provenance timestamps and lacks the cited Hamaker primary-source entry; adding a public error variant may also require downstream exhaustive-match updates. The change is mergeable with explicit owner follow-up on these bounded documentation and compatibility risks.

This ADR remains **accepted-target**. Naming ESEM/DSEM and compositional coordinates as the model-family contract is not a protected-main implementation claim.

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; JSS PDF re-opened 2026-08-18T07:06Z, p. 4; scalar `L = 1`; do not form `2 a` first; `a = 0` and `z → 0` recover `q Δt`; `z → −∞` keeps `−0.5 q / a`; a zero diffusion is exactly zero; `z → +∞` and an overflowing rewrite scale `0.5 q / a` fail closed), recovers the exact scalar lagged latent covariance `exp(a Δt) p` and the law-of-total-variance map `Var(η_t) = exp(2 a Δt) p + Q_Δt` (Driver et al., 2017, Eq. 3–4, pp. 4–5; JSS PDF re-opened 2026-08-18T18:03Z; JSS has no numbered §2.2; `Q_Δt` is `cov(η_t | η_{t-1})` and is refused as the unconditional variance; a zero diffusion whose `2 (a Δt)` overflows to `+∞` fails closed), recovers the exact scalar stationary within-subject variance `-q / (2 a)` as the `Δt → ∞` limit of Eq. 4 for stable `a < 0` (JSS p. 16 `asymDIFFUSION`; §4.3 T0VAR stationarity; 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`; CodeRabbit on `75ecdd3`); when `2 a` overflows, form `(q / a) * -0.5`; do not form `0.5 q` first (`q = from_bits(1)`, `a = -from_bits(1)` → `0.5`); `a ≥ 0` and finite-interval `Q_Δt` fail closed as that limit), recovers the exact scalar trait-plus-state variance `trait + state` and lagged covariance `trait + exp(a Δt) p` (Driver et al., 2017, §4.3, p. 9; JSS PDF re-opened 2026-08-18T21:07Z; a stable trait has `DRIFT` and `DIFFUSION` fixed to zero; `TRAITVAR` is not process noise and not `asymDIFFUSION`; evolving the summed variance as if it were all state fails the claim boundary; this is not RI-CLPM), recovers the exact scalar observed-indicator variance `λ² Var(η) + θ` when `MANIFESTTRAITVAR` is zero and `λ² Var(η) + θ + ψ` otherwise, and the lagged observed covariance `λ² cov(η_t, η_{t-1}) + ψ` (Driver et al., 2017, Eq. 5, p. 5; Table 2, p. 12; JSS PDF re-opened 2026-08-19T04:18Z; Equation 1 is the latent SDE; form `(λ p) λ` then add `θ`, then add `ψ`; do not form `λ²` first; `MANIFESTVAR` is `Θ`, not `Var(y)` and does not enter lagged observed covariance; `MANIFESTTRAITVAR` is `Ψ_τ`, not `Θ`; `TRAITVAR` is latent and scaled by `λ²`; `Var(η)` is not `Var(y)`), recovers the exact scalar observed-indicator mean `τ + λ μ` (Driver et al., 2017, Eq. 5, p. 5; Table 2, p. 12; JSS PDF re-opened 2026-08-19T14:08Z; `MANIFESTMEANS` is `τ`, not `E(y)`; `CINT` is not `MANIFESTMEANS`; `T0MEANS` is not `E(y)`), recovers the exact scalar discrete latent mean `exp(a Δt) μ_0 + (exp(a Δt) − 1)/a κ` (Driver et al., 2017, Eq. 3, p. 4; Table 2, p. 12; JSS PDF re-opened 2026-08-19T18:10Z; `T0MEANS` is not `μ_t`; `CINT` is not the discrete increment; a zero drift is `κ Δt`; underflow of `exp(a Δt)` to `+0` drops the carried `T0MEANS` and keeps `−κ / a`), recovers the exact scalar evolved observed-indicator mean `τ + λ μ_t` (Driver et al., 2017, Eq. 5 of the Eq. 3 expected-value map; JSS PDF re-opened 2026-08-19T22:10Z; the first-occasion map `τ + λ μ_0` is not `E(y_t)`; `MANIFESTMEANS` is not `E(y_t)`; `μ_t` is not `E(y_t)`), recovers the exact scalar contemporaneous time-dependent predictor impulse `m x` (Driver et al., 2017, Eq. 1–3, pp. 4–5; Table 2, p. 12; §7.2, pp. 20–21; JSS PDF re-opened 2026-08-20T07:10Z; `TDPREDEFFECT` is `M`, not `CINT`; `M x` is not `A^{-1}[e^{A Δt} − I] B z`; `M x` is not Voelkle et al., 2012, Eq. 14; the level-change form is not that impulse), recovers the exact scalar observed mean of that contemporaneous impulse `τ + λ(μ_t + m x)` (Driver et al., 2017, Eq. 5 of the Eq. 3 fourth-summand composition; JSS PDF re-opened 2026-08-20T09:01Z; 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`; `MANIFESTMEANS` is not `E(y_t)`; the evolved-plus-impulse latent mean is not `E(y_t)`), recovers the exact scalar time-independent predictor increment `A^{-1}[e^{A Δt} − I] B z` (Driver et al., 2017, Eq. 1–3, pp. 4–5; Table 2, p. 12; JSS PDF re-opened 2026-08-20T10:13Z; `TIPREDEFFECT` is `B`, not `κ`; form `B z` first, then the discrete intercept map; a zero drift is `B z Δt`; `B` is not the discrete increment; `A^{-1}[e^{A Δt} − I] B z` is not `CINT`, not `M x`, and not Voelkle Eq. 14), recovers the exact scalar observed mean of that increment `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;

`MANIFESTMEANS` is not `E(y_t)`; the evolved-plus-increment latent mean is not `E(y_t)`), recovers the exact scalar within-interval time-dependent impulse carry `e^{A(t−u)} M x` for `t0 < u < t` (Driver et al., 2017, Eq. 1–2, pp. 4–5; Eq. 3 exponential map; §7.2, pp. 20–21; JSS PDF re-opened 2026-08-20T10:33Z; form `m x` first, then `e^{a(t−u)} m x`; a zero drift is `m x`; underflow of `e^{a(t−u)}` to `+0` is vanishing dissipation and is kept;

`MANIFESTVAR` is not that later observed variance; the later-occasion latent variance is not that observed variance), and refuses the difference quotient, pooling discrete lags from unequal intervals, and a binary64 underflow of that exponential to `+0` (not a discrete lag). The first-order product `a_yx Δt` is Eq. 14 and the underflow limit of Eq. 12, not the general constant-predictor discrete effect. Already-centered residuals may have irregular event intervals. 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 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 occasion-mean slice recovers Hamaker, Kuiper, and Grasman (2015, Eq. 1a–1b; UvA-DARE PDF opened 2026-09-03T06:07Z KST) time-varying group means `μ_t`. The temporal deviations `p_it = x_it − μ_t` still contain trait-like between-person differences from that occasion mean; lagged relations on those residuals are CLPM lags, not within-person lags. This is not RI-CLPM (their Eq. 3a). Unaligned event times have no shared occasion and fail closed. 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;

JSS PDF re-opened 2026-08-18T18:03Z; JSS has no numbered §2.2; `Q_Δt` is `cov(η_t | η_{t-1})` and is refused as the unconditional variance; a zero diffusion whose `2 (a Δt)` overflows to `+∞` fails closed), recovers the exact scalar stationary within-subject variance `-q / (2 a)` as the `Δt → ∞` limit of Eq. 4 for stable `a < 0` (JSS p. 16 `asymDIFFUSION`; §4.3 T0VAR stationarity; 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`; CodeRabbit on `75ecdd3`); when `2 a` overflows, form `(q / a) * -0.5`; do not form `0.5 q` first (`q = from_bits(1)`, `a = -from_bits(1)` → `0.5`); `a ≥ 0` and finite-interval `Q_Δt` fail closed as that limit), recovers the exact scalar trait-plus-state variance `trait + state` and lagged covariance `trait + exp(a Δt) p` (Driver et al., 2017, §4.3, p. 9; JSS PDF re-opened 2026-08-18T21:07Z; a stable trait has `DRIFT` and `DIFFUSION` fixed to zero; `TRAITVAR` is not process noise and not `asymDIFFUSION`; evolving the summed variance as if it were all state fails the claim boundary;

`τ + λ μ_t` is not that observed mean; `MANIFESTMEANS` is not `E(y_0)`; the constrained latent mean is not `E(y_0)`), recovers the exact scalar §4.3 / p. 16 stationary `T0VAR` `trait + −q / (2 a) + (B / a)² v` (Driver et al., 2017, §4.3, pp. 9–10; p. 16; JSS PDF re-opened 2026-08-22T03:07Z; form the within-subject contribution first, then include the trait, then include the TI extra variance, then add; not free `T0VAR`, not `asymDIFFUSION` alone, not `TRAITVAR` alone, not `addedTIPREDVAR` alone, and not the finite-interval discrete latent variance), recovers the exact scalar Eq. 5 of that constrained variance `λ²(trait + −q / (2 a) + (B / a)² v) + θ + ψ` (Driver et al., 2017, §4.3, pp. 9–10; Eq. 5, p. 5; Table 2, p. 12; 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)`), recovers the exact scalar lagged covariance of that constrained process `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), recovers the exact scalar Eq. 5 of that lagged covariance `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), recovers the exact scalar later-occasion variance of that constrained process `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; form the evolved within-subject variance first, then include the trait, then include the TI extra variance, then add; 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), recovers the exact scalar Eq. 5 of that later-occasion variance `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 that later observed variance; the later-occasion latent variance is not that observed variance), and refuses the difference quotient, pooling discrete lags from unequal intervals, and a binary64 underflow of that exponential to `+0` (not a discrete lag). The first-order product `a_yx Δt` is Eq. 14 and the underflow limit of Eq. 12, not the general constant-predictor discrete effect. Already-centered residuals may have irregular event intervals. 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.
