Paired comparisons between latent classes of syndemic conditions on HIV-risk behavior using a 4-class solution
| Comparison between classes | Wald statistic | p-value | Benjamini–Hochberg adjusted p-value |
|---|---|---|---|
| Class 1 (“No Syndemic Class”) and Class 2 (“Alcohol Misuse and Polydrug Use Syndemic Class”) | 1.45 | .23 | .23 |
| Class 1 (“No Syndemic Class”) and Class 3 (“Polydrug Use and HIV Syndemic Class”) | 4.18‡ | .04 | .06 |
| Class 1 (“No Syndemic Class”) and Class 4 (“Alcohol Misuse Class”) | 13.84*** | <.001 | < .001 |
| Class 2 (“Alcohol Misuse and Polydrug Use Syndemic Class”) and Class 3 (“Polydrug Use and HIV Syndemic Class”) | 6.38* | .01 | .02 |
| Class 2 (“Alcohol Misuse and Polydrug Use Syndemic Class”) and Class 4 (“Alcohol Misuse Class”) | 3.51‡ | .06 | .07 |
| Class 3 (“Polydrug Use and HIV Syndemic Class”) and Class 4 (“Alcohol Misuse Class”) | 18.50*** | <.001 | <.001 |
Note A significant adjusted p-value associated with the Wald statistic indicates that the parameters significantly differ between the respective classes. Degrees of freedom for all models = 1
p < .10,
p < .05,
p < .01,
p < .001
