<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">“Position wise group-typical states” aims at looking at and visualizing the relationship between a state sequences and a covariate. It can also be used to identify position-wise differences between clusters. The method
was introduced in Studer (2015) under the name “sequence of typical state” and is now available in the latest version of TraMineRextras.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
