  1. Note: For AIC (Akaike information criterion), BIC (Bayesian information criterion), and aBIC (sample-size adjusted BIC) lower values indicate better fitting models. For entropy higher values indicate better quality of class assignment. Smallest n refers to the class with the smallest number of participants.
