Exercise 6

This exercise asks you to select and interpret a latent profile model for the “Big 5” personality traits using 5 continuous indicators of the latent class variable. Then, it asks you to interpret all parameters in the model. Note that, by default in most software packages, the variances of the indicators are restricted to be equal across classes. The exercise continues by asking you to add a grouping variable for biological sex.
