Description:This workshop aims to introduce participants to latent trait and latent class models (Day 1), and to multiple group latent trait and latent class analyses (Day 2). It provides training in the use of the Mplus programme to carry out the analyses. The course incorporates the use of marginal residual statistics to examine model fit. This offers a new way of assessing multiple group analyses and draws on bespoke functions written by the course leader in R software. Prior knowledge of either Mplus or R is not required.
