The models presented here include indicators all of which have continuous responses.
LPA: Baseline LPA with all continuous indicators
This code fits a 5-class, baseline, latent-profile model for the “Big 5” personality traits using 5 continuous indicators of the latent class variable.
LPA: Baseline LPA with all continuous indicators and a covariate
This code fits a baseline, latent-profile model for the “Big 5” personality traits using 5 continuous indicators of the latent class variable and biological sex as a covariate.
LPA: Baseline LPA with all continuous indicators and a grouping variable with measurement invariance
This code fits a baseline, latent-profile model for the “Big 5” personality traits using 5 continuous indicators of the latent class variable and biological sex as the grouping variable. It also imposes measurement invariance across the groups.
LPA: LPA with a grouping variable with measurement invariance across means and variances
Description This code fits a baseline, latent-profile model to identify and describe profiles of financial stress responses. It also imposes measurement invariance across the groups with means and variances equal. This code corresponds to the research paper titled “Financial stress response profiles and psychosocial functioning in low-income parents” published in Journal of Family Psychology in 2018.

LPA: LPA with a grouping variable without measurement invariance
Description This code fits a baseline, latent-profile model to identify and describe profiles of financial stress responses. It doesn’t impose measurement invariance across the groups. This model is similar to the model in the research paper titled “Financial stress response profiles and psychosocial functioning in low-income parents” published in Journal of Family Psychology in 2018. One key difference is that this model DOES NOT impose measurement invariance while the model in the paper DOES impose measurement invariance. The paper can be found here: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/29878812/ The code for the model in the paper (i.e. with measurement invariance) can be found here....
Multilevel LPA: Baseline two-level LPA with classes at level 1 and level 2
This code fits a 2-level latent-profile model using a “non-parametric approach” to identify mother-father-adolescent relationship structures and dynamics on a daily basis.
