A latent class approach to inequity in health using biomarker data
Carrieri, Vincenzo; Davillas, Apostolos; Jones, Andrew M. - 2019
We develop an empirical approach to analyse, measure and decompose Inequality of Opportunity (IOp) in health, based on a latent class model. This addresses some of the limitations that affect earlier work in this literature concerning the definition of types, such as partial observability, the...
