Notes. Data from 2016–2018 are pooled. % = Proportion of latent class. Estimates weighted to account for complex sampling design. χ2 = Chi-square (and accompanying test of significance via p-values [*p < .05, **p< .01, *** p< .001]) to test for differences in the distribution of demographic variables between latent classes.
