Chung, Hwan; Anthony, James C. – Structural Equation Modeling: A Multidisciplinary Journal, 2013
This article presents a multiple-group latent class-profile analysis (LCPA) by taking a Bayesian approach in which a Markov chain Monte Carlo simulation is employed to achieve more robust estimates for latent growth patterns. This article describes and addresses a label-switching problem that involves the LCPA likelihood function, which has…
