Note. Within-individual adverse exposure pathways (transitions in adverse exposures over time; latent class number in parentheses for interpretability) through adolescence listed on the left with resultant prevalence of experiencing mental health outcomes and suicide-related behaviors expressed as percentages (%) on the right. Boxes shaded in gray represent exposure pathways with no individuals based on final class counts and proportions based on most likely latent class pattern the RI-LTA models.
