Abstract

The use of finite mixture models to identify a limited number of mutually exclusive latent (i.e., unknown) subgroups (i.e., classes or profiles) based on individuals' survey responses, observational and/or physiological values. Finite mixture modelling is also an active area of quantitative methodological research and advancement, which means best practices continue to evolve. This tutorial on latent transition analysis (LTA) is written to facilitate researchers using this modelling approach to answer research questions about transitions from membership in one latent class or profile construct to another latent class or profile construct rigorously and following best practices. This tutorial will cover the purpose, analysis steps, interpretation and recommended reporting practices for LTA. To increase the applicability and approachability of this LTA tutorial article example, three timepoint sport psychology data on the health behaviours of collegiate student-athletes, the Mplus syntax for the analysis and the decision process along with the results, tables and figures are included in the supplemental online materials.

期刊介绍: The International Journal of Psychology (IJP) is the journal of the International Union of Psychological Science (IUPsyS) and is published under the auspices of the Union. IJP seeks to support the IUPsyS in fostering the development of international psychological science. It aims to strengthen the dialog within psychology around the world and to facilitate communication among different areas of psychology and among psychologists from different cultural backgrounds. IJP is the outlet for empirical basic and applied studies and for reviews that either (a) incorporate perspectives from different areas or domains within psychology or across different disciplines, (b) test the culture-dependent validity of psychological theories, or (c) integrate literature from different regions in the world.
