Table 4.
Item response probabilities and class membership probabilities for the three-class solution. Response probabilities indicate the likelihood that a patient who is a member of this latent class would endorse a particular reason for nonadherence (e.g., for the reason “You were out of your routine,” it is highly probable that patients in the capacity+motivation and capacity class would endorse this item, but that patients in the no clear reasons class would not). Standard errors are reported in parentheses; response probabilities greater than .50 are in bold.
