Abstracts

The paper focuses on latent class models and their application for quantitative data. Latent class modeling is one of multivariate analysis techniques of the contingency table and can be viewed as a special case of model-based clustering, for multivariate discrete data. It is assumed that each observation comes from one of the numbers of subpopulations, with its own probability distribution. We used latent class analysis for grouping and detecting homogeneity of Silesian people using poLCA package of R. We analyzed data collected by the Department of Social Pedagogy, University of Silesia in Katowice.
