Structural Equation Models: Mixture Models
This article discusses a modelling framework that links two well-known statistical methods: structural equation modelling (SEM) and latent class or finite mixture modelling. This hybrid approach was proposed independently by Arminger and Stein [1], Dolan and Van der Maas [4], and Jedidi, Jagpal and DeSarbo [5]. Here, we refer to this approach as mixture SEM or latent class SEM. There are two di...
متن کاملMultilevel Growth Mixture Models for Classifying Groups
This article introduces a multilevel growth mixture model (MGMM) for classifying both the individuals and the groups they are nested in. Nine variations of the general model are described that differ in terms of categorical and continuous latent variable specification within and between groups. An application in the context of school effectiveness research is presented. Schools are classified i...
متن کاملStudent Dropout Risk Assessment in Undergraduate Course at Residential University
Student dropout prediction is an indispensable for numerous intelligent systems to measure the education system and success rate of any university as well as throughout the university in the world. Therefore, it becomes essential to develop efficient methods for prediction of the students at risk of dropping out, enabling the adoption of proactive process to minimize the situation. Thus, this r...
متن کاملGrowth in Latin America: Models and Findings
The performance of the Latin American economies in the 20th century has been disappointing. Using per capita GDP as a measure, Latin America has roughly maintained its income (relative to the world) over the last 100 years. If, instead the post-1950 performance is considered, the results are more discouraging. Using data from Maddison (2003), it follows that the Latin American economies had a l...
متن کاملA general class of pattern mixture models for nonignorable dropout with many possible dropout times.
In this article we consider the problem of fitting pattern mixture models to longitudinal data when there are many unique dropout times. We propose a marginally specified latent class pattern mixture model. The marginal mean is assumed to follow a generalized linear model, whereas the mean conditional on the latent class and random effects is specified separately. Because the dimension of the p...
