A mixture of regression models for multivariate observed variables which contextually involves a dimension reduction step through a linear factor model is proposed.

Abstract
A mixture of regression models for multivariate observed variables which contextually involves a dimension reduction step through a linear factor model is proposed. The model estimation is performed via the EM-algorithm and a procedure to compute asymptotic standard errors for the parameter estimates is developed. The proposed approach is applied to the study of students satisfaction towards different aspects of their school as a function of various covariates.File in questo prodotto:
