Apologies for such a simple question, but I have been banging my head against this for hours.

When you fit an LCA to ordinal data, the resulting thresholds are logits and I can easily show the conversion to probabilities.

When the manifest data are nominal the thresholds are different. I've tried all the conversions I can think of but cannot get back to probabilities - please can you put me out of my misery?


many thanks, Jon

p444 of the user guide has come to my rescue.
I'm sure that wasn't there earlier :-S
