Profiling young adults and adolescents based on risk behaviors using latent class analysis

Numerous literatures have stressed that detection of risk behaviors can assist a person towards reducing injury. Latent Class Analysis (LCA) was used in determining the optimal number of latent classes for six risk indicators variables: alcohol consumption in a day, cigarette smoking in a day, marij...

Latent Class Analysis (LCA) was used in determining the optimal number of latent classes for six risk indicators variables: alcohol consumption in a day, cigarette smoking in a day, marijuana use in the past 30 days, number of sexual partners for the past 3 months, depression, and suicidal ideation. The analysis has resulted to four distinct latent classes: High Risk, Low Risk, Poor Mental Health, and Legal Substance User.
