Note. AIC, Akaike Information Criterion; BIC, Bayesian Information Criterion; aBIC, sample-size adjusted Bayesian Information Criterion; VLMR-LRT, Vuong-Lo-Mendell-Rubin likelihood ratio test. Bolded values indicate the better-fitting model (Poisson or negative binomial) for comparisons with the same number of classes
