Detailed definitions of variables and categories are provided in Appendix 1. Missing data are shown in italic. The five-class model divided the study population into one class characterized by vulnerability in various domains, three classes characterized by vulnerability predominantly in one specific domain and one class with mainly protective factors (see Table 2 for all class proportions and characteristics). Figure 1 provides a visual representation. 2
