LTCDM Package Updates

Version 1.1.0 - 2025-05-17

New Features

• Added a new method for single time-point analyses (cross-sectional data), which enables researchers to investigate how the covariates are associated with attribute mastery. The steps involved in the three-step approach are: (1) fitting a CDM, (2) assigning examinees to latent classes and computing the CEPs, and (3) estimating the logistic regression model with the CEPs. This method was proposed in Iaconangelo (2017) and was adopted in a cross-sectional analysis of digital literacy assessment data in Liang et al (2021) <doi: 10.1016/j.chb.2021.106850>.
