Needs help with ADL 0.31 0.58 0.14 0.12 0.53 0.57

ADL = activities of daily living; 1 survey respondent was missing values for all 11 indicator variables.

Red Text = Item Response Probabilities ≥ .60. Blue Text = Meds Insecure Response Probability <.60 used to define class due to the comparably high probability of endorsement when compared to all other classes.
