Profiles of Anthropometric, Lifestyle, and Psychological Factors Across Clusters and Sex-Adjusted Cluster Differences^{^a}

↵^a CI=confidence interval, IQR=interquartile ratio, OR=odds ratio, Ref=reference value.
^b Ordinal logistic regression; OR is interpreted as the proportional increase in the odds for being in a higher category of physical activity/computer use than lower categories combined.
^c Binary logistic regression; OR is interpreted as the proportional increase in the odds for being depressed/anxious.
