Welcome!

Welcome! I’m Minjeong (MJ) Jeon, Professor of Advanced Quantitative Methods at UCLA’s School of Education & Information Studies. I’m affiliated with the UCLA Center for Social Statistics and received my Ph.D. in Quantitative Methods and M.A. in Statistics from UC Berkeley. Before UCLA, I was an Assistant Professor of Quantitative Psychology at The Ohio State University.

My research develops and applies advanced statistical models—especially latent variable models—to better understand measurement and growth. Recently, I’ve been working on projects in network analysis, joint modeling, and process modeling.

I especially enjoy working with researchers across diverse fields including psychology, neuroscience, education policy, medicine, dentistry, computer science, and statistics.
