A Latent Transition Mixture Model Using the Three-Step Specification (2014, methodology): “We drew on our previous work with similar data (Quirk et al., 2013) to guide our decision, and examined the item profile plots of the three-, four-, and five-class models.”
Prediction from Latent Classes: A Demonstration of Different Approaches to Include Distal Outcomes in Mixture Models (2019, background): “For example, in a study of the heterogeneity in children’s readiness for Kindergarten, Quirk, Nylund-Gibson, and Furlong (2013) linked latent classes of school readiness to later academic outcomes, e.g., standardized reading scores.”
Covariates and Mixture Modeling: Results of a Simulation Study Exploring the Impact of Misspecified Effects on Class Enumeration (2016, methodology): “As an example, Quirk, Nylund-Gibson, and Furlong (2013) used LCA to describe heterogeneity in kindergarten readiness based on multiple observed readiness indicators and then used student’s prior preschool experiences, age, language skills, and gender as predictors of the emergent latent classes of…”
