The research findings revealed that, the LPA had 3 models, and the numbers of the groups in each model were 2, 3 and 4, respectively. When considering the probability that the classification was the most accurate (E_k), it was the model with 2 groups (likelihood = -7138.381, AIC = 14344.763, BIC = 14514.960, ABIC = 14406.967, E_k = 0.954).
