Investigating population heterogeneity with factor mixture models.
Sources of population heterogeneity may or may not be observed. If the sources of heterogeneity are observed (e.g., gender), the sample can be split into groups and the data ana...
Deciding on the Number of Classes in Latent Class Analysis and Growth Mixture Modeling: A Monte Carlo Simulation Study
Abstract Mixture modeling is a widely applied data analysis technique used to identify unobserved heterogeneity in a population. Despite mixture models' usefulness in practice, ...
Inference from Iterative Simulation Using Multiple Sequences
The Gibbs sampler, the algorithm of Metropolis and similar iterative simulation methods are potentially very helpful for summarizing multivariate distributions. Used naively, ho...
Maximum Likelihood from Incomplete Data Via the <i>EM</i> Algorithm
