title: What is the proper way to perform Latent Class Analysis in Python?
body: <p>I'd like to model a data set using <a href="https://methodology.psu.edu/downloads/lcastata" rel="noreferrer">Latent Class Analysis</a> (LCA) using Python. I've found the <a href="http://scikit-learn.org/stable/modules/generated/sklearn.decomposition.FactorAnalysis.html#examples-using-sklearn-decomposition-factoranalysis" rel="noreferrer">Factor Analysis</a> class in sklearn, but I'm not confident that this class is equivalent to LCA. </p>
  
  <p>Does a package or class for LCA exist in Python?</p>
