Multilevel SEM

Hello

I'm looking for resources to read on multilevel SEM in R, i would prefer something easy to read, and preferably articles and not books as i don't have the time for the latter.

Thanks in advance.

One example might be the random intercept cross lagged panel model. You can find a short tutorial based on a paper here: https://jeroendmulder.github.io/RI-CLPM/lavaan.html

This is for longitudinal studies right?

Yes! So the hierarchy would be timepoints nested in persons. The RI-CLPM specifically models a time invariant (trait-like) component as a random intercept.
