Latent Class Analysis
Latent Class Analysis
(LCA) is a
statistical method
used to identify
unobserved subgroups
within a population based on
individuals' responses
to
multiple observed variables
. It assumes that the population is a mixture of
distinct classes
, each with its own
probability distribution
over the observed variables, allowing researchers to uncover
hidden patterns
and infer
class membership probabilities
for each individual.
