Abstract
The advantages of latent class analysis for cross-cultural research in psychology are discussed. The basic principles of multigroup latent class analysis are described and illustrated by an empirical study comparing satisfaction-with-life-domain profiles across two nations (China, United States). In particular, it is shown how various assumptions of measurement invariance across cultures can be tested statistically in the latent class framework.

This article investigated the use of three model selection information criteria—Akaike AIC, Schwarz SIC, and Bozdogan CAIC—for non-nested models and found that SIC and CAIC were superior to AIC for relatively simple models, whereas AIC was superior for more complex models, although accuracy was often quite low for such models.

An algorithm is presented for estimating the distribution of a fit measure by drawing bootstrap samples from the model-expected proportions, the so-called nonnaive bootstrap method, from five different data sets, and results show that the asymptotic chi-square distribution is not at all valid for sparse data.
