This paper deals with improved measures of statistical accuracy for parameter estimates of latent class models. It introduces more precise confidence intervals for the parameters of this model, based on parametric and nonparametric bootstrap. Moreover, the label-switching problem is discussed and a solution to handle it introduced. The results are illustrated using a well-known dataset.
