Abstract
We describe a very general approach to response-based segmentation. Market segments are formed in the context of model structures in which multiple dependent variables are involved, and both dependent and independent variables are potentially measured with error: structural equation models. The method subsumes several specialized models, such as mixtures of simultaneous equations and confirmatory factor analysis. We start with a brief introduction to structural equation models.
