%X In this paper the state of the art of the mixture index of fit, proposed by Rudas, Clogg &Lindsay in 1994 is presented. The analysis of the unstructured latent class considered as a residual analysis of a new kind is discussed. It is concluded that it is most adequate whenever the lack of fit is due to the existence of ¡°spare¡± individuals, but it is not the same if there are ¡°lacking¡± individuals in several cells. At last, the influence of a cell on the lack of fit of a model is defined, which can be used as a complementary descriptive measure in the usual residual analysis and in the configural frequency analysis.
