Latent Class Analysis for Reliable Measure of Inflation Expectation in the Indian Public.

Journal Title: European Journal of Economic and Business - Year 2016, Vol 1, Issue 1

Abstract

The main aim of this article is to inspect the properties of survey based on household inflation expectations, conducted by Reserve Bank of India (RBI). It is theorised that the respondent’s answers are exaggerated by extreme response bias. Latent class analysis has been hailed as a promising technique for studying measurement errors in surveys, because the model produces estimates of the error rates associated with a given question of the questionnaire. I have identified a model with optimum performance and hence categorize the objective as well as reliable classifiers or otherwise.
