Class Membership Probabilities

PA/NC White 50% 12% 11% 23% --- 5%
NC African American 11% --- 17% --- 49% 23%

Note. Item-response probabilities over .50 are bolded. W = White and AA = African American. Dashes indicate that class membership probability was fixed to zero for that site-race group.

Two item-response probabilities for Smoking While Pregnant are reported above for the Poor, Unmarried & No Partner, Multi-Prob. profile because the prevalence of this risk factor was allowed to vary across the white and African American groups for this profile.
