Class Analysis (LCA): A statistical method for identifying unmeasured
class membership among subjects using categorical and / or continuous observed varia
class membership among subjects using categorical and / or continuous observed variables.
In estimating
class membership, simulation work [41 — 43] demonstrated that the standard three - step modal
class approach can introduce bias affecting the strength of the association between the
latent classes and observed covariates.
