Latent Structure Analysis is a tool measuring unobserved or immeasurable variables. It also used to find an existing latent variable that would explain the relationship of the measurable or observed variables. With the existing latent variable defined by the observed variable, the related observed variables become independent. A program was created using SPSS (Statistical Packages For Social Sciences) that conducts latent structure analysis for a two- way contingency table. The program defines a latent variable with two and three latent classes. The significance of the model is tested using chi-square statistics. The ten significant variables (course, college, gender, registration status, high school award, preference in studying, choice of the course, affiliation to organization, number of students in the class, and high school GPA) are applied to test the success of the program.
