clusters in columns: Social Disengagement ‐ Extensive (SD‐X), Local (SD‐L), Physical (SD‐P); Selective Engagement ‐ Political (SE‐P), Digital (SE‐D); Participation ‐ Extensive (P‐X), Civically Engaged (P‐CE), Non‐Local (P‐NL) · notes: All pairwise differences are statistically significant at p ≤ .05, except those pairs that are indicated in superscript above. Reading example for first row, first column: the score distribution of health nutrition for SD‐X is statistically identical to that of cluster 6 (SE‐D). Scores larger than +/‐ .3 are underlined. *Alcohol consumption not used in clustering.
