ApolloChoiceModelling forum

Hi Stephane,

I had a question about running the latent class model in Apollo. In the example on the Apollo website (LC_no_covariates.r), you keep asc_1 constant across the classes (with asc_2 fixed at 0). I can’t quite work out how you change this to not being fixed across classes (i.e., different asc_1 constant per class). Are you able to send me an example of how you adapt the syntax to do this?

Thanks for your help.

Hi

constants are no different from other model parameters. You will just need to include the constants in apollo_lcPars. Have a look at how the parameters that vary across classes are treated, and you need to just do the same for your constants
