Identifiability of Latent Class Models with Covariates

open access: yesPsychometrika, 2022
AbstractLatent class models with covariates are widely used for psychological, social, and educational research. Yet the fundamental identifiability issue of these models has not been fully addressed. Among the previous research on the identifiability of latent class models with covariates, Huang and Bandeen-Roche (Psychometrika 69:5–32, 2004) studied ...

Variable assessment in latent class models [PDF]

open access: yesComputational Statistics & Data Analysis, 2014
The latent class model provides an important platform for jointly modeling mixed-mode data - i.e., discrete and continuous data with various parametric distributions. Multiple mixed-mode variables are used to cluster subjects into latent classes. While the mixed-mode latent class analysis is a powerful tool for statisticians, few studies are focused on
