Latent class analysis (LCA) is a statistical method used to group individuals (cases, units) into classes (categories) of an unobserved (latent) variable on the basis of the responses made on a set of nominal, ordinal, or continuous observed variables.

Cole, Rachel – Education Economics, 2017
Worldwide private tutoring is documented extensively, but its impact is unclear.

However, the (presumably numerous) factors mediating the positive relationship between peer and own achievement have received less attention in the literature. I present evidence on one particular transmission channel: teachers tend to grade…

Kvande, Marianne Nilsen; Belsky, Jay; Wichstrøm, Lars – European Journal of Special Needs Education, 2018
Children from some demographic groups disproportionately receive special education (SE) services.

Hence, in a community sample of 1250 Norwegian children, we examined the role of third grade…
