I'm wondering if a community member can share sample syntax that can be used for latent class analysis for complex survey data (adjusting for weight, cluster and strata). I essentially want to accomplish what was done in this example, https://stats.idre.ucla.edu/mplus/dae/latent-class-analysis/ , but need to also adjust for the complex survey design. My understanding is that I should use "complex", not "mixture" analysis type, but when I try this I am unable to use the "class" option to specify the number of classes or groups I would like to divide the survey sample population into. |

Here you go variable: names are u1-u6 s cl w; categorical = u1-u6; usevar are u1-u6; strat=s; cluster=cl; weight=w; classes = c(2); data: file is StratSamp1.dat; analysis: type = complex mixture; model: %overall% %c#1% [u1$1-u6$1*-1]; %c#2% [u1$1-u6$1*1]; Take a look at this relevant article https://www.statmodel.com/download/Chi2Complex4.pdf |

Thanks so much for your help Tihomir! I was able to use your syntax example to get my analysis back on track! |
