Latent Class Log‐Linear Models for Estimating Diagnostic Test Accuracy Without a Gold Standard: A Simulation Study

Statistics in Medicine, Volume 45, Issue 15-17, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Background In the absence of a gold standard, latent class models can be used to estimate test accuracy from a study comparing results on multiple tests. Fixed‐effect and latent trait models are often used to account for conditional dependencies between tests, mitigating against biased accuracy estimates, but are difficult to implement. Latent
