Table 3.

Class membership and item response probabilities of the three latent classes

Latent class
Relatively healthy (1) Cardiovascular-metabolic (2) Cognitive-metabolic and osteoporosis (3)
Latent class prevalence 0.574(1394) 0.256(623) 0.168(409)
Item-response probabilities
Hypertension 0.659 0.893 0.694
Cognitive impairment 0.396 0.451 0.810
Osteoarthritis 0.043 0.200 0.223
Diabetes mellitus 0.228 0.476 0.313
Thyroid disease 0.044 0.170 0.118
Obesity 0.122 0.639 0.152
Depression 0.067 0.339 0.639
Osteoporosis 0.347 0.243 0.842
Kidney stone 0.046 0.137 0.120

Note The probability of a “No” response can be calculated by subtracting the item-response probabilities shown above from 1
