Russell P. Houpt; Kevin J. Grimm; Aaron T. McLaughlin; Daryl R. Van Tongeren – Structural Equation Modeling: A Multidisciplinary Journal, 2024
Numerous methods exist to determine the optimal number of classes when using latent profile analysis (LPA), but none are consistently correct. Recently, the likelihood incremental percentage per parameter (LI3P) was proposed as a model effect-size measure. To evaluate the LI3P more thoroughly, we simulated 50,000 datasets, manipulating factors…

Liqun Yin; Ummugul Bezirhan; Matthias von Davier – International Electronic Journal of Elementary Education, 2025
This paper introduces an approach that uses latent class analysis to identify cut scores (LCA-CS) and categorize respondents based on context scales derived from largescale assessments like PIRLS, TIMSS, and NAEP. Context scales use Likert scale items to measure latent constructs of interest and classify respondents into meaningful ordered…
