CHAPTER 16MIXUThe MIXU option is used to specify whether to use the number ofiterations or the convergence criterion to terminate the M step iterationsof the EM algorithm for censored, categorical, and count outcomes.Following is an example of how to select the convergence criterionbeing fulfilled:MIXU = CONVERGENCE;LOGHIGHThe LOGHIGH option is used to specify the maximum value allowed forthe logit thresholds of the latent class indicators. The default is +15.LOGLOWThe LOGLOW option is used to specify the minimum value allowed forthe logit thresholds of the latent class indicators. The default is -15.UCELLSIZEThe UCELLSIZE option is used to specify the minimum expected cellsize allowed for computing chi-square from the frequency table of thelatent class indicators when the corresponding observed cell size is notzero. The default value is .01.VARIANCEThe VARIANCE option is used in conjunction with TYPE=RANDOMand TYPE=TWOLEVEL when ESTIMATOR=ML, MLR, or MLF tospecify the minimum value that is allowed in the estimation of thevariance of the random effect variables and the variances of the betweenleveloutcome variables. The default value is .0001.558
