Description: Bias-adjusted three-step estimation of latent class models
        with covariates and distal outcomes. The latent class
        measurement model is estimated first, with 'multilevLCA'
        (Lyrvall et al., 2025) <doi:10.1080/00273171.2025.2473935>, and
        held fixed; observations are then classified; and the classes
        are related to covariates and distal outcomes with the maximum
        likelihood correction of Vermunt (2010)
        <doi:10.1093/pan/mpq025> and Bakk, Tekle and Vermunt (2013)
        <doi:10.1177/0081175012470644>, or the correction of Bolck,
        Croon and Hagenaars (2004) <doi:10.1093/pan/mph001>. Standard
        errors account for the uncertainty of the measurement model
        (Bakk, Oberski and Vermunt, 2014) <doi:10.1093/pan/mpu003>.
        Includes class enumeration, modal and proportional class
        assignment, covariate formulas, Gaussian, Poisson, binomial,
        and multinomial distal outcomes, the two-step estimator of Bakk
        and Kuha (2018) <doi:10.1007/s11336-017-9592-7>, measurement
        models applied to new samples, and full-information maximum
        likelihood for missing indicators, standard methods for fitted
        models, and a data-generating process replicating the
        simulation design of Bakk and Kuha (2018).
