LPA Scoring Equation

[Kimberley Kaseweter]

I am hoping to generate a "scoring equation" from an LPA model that would allow us to classify a new case into one of the subgroups. In Latent Gold you can get coefficients for each indicator variable for each of the classes, and these coefficients can then be used to create a scoring equation. Is there a way to generate these coefficients using tidyLPA? Thank you! :)
