Lifestyle patterns and their nutritional, socio-demographic and psychological determinants in a community-based study: A mixed approach of latent class and factor analyses

Abstract

This study attempts to classify Iranian adults by their own health behavior. Healthcare professionals should be aware of associations between different lifestyle risk factors and health promotion strategies should further focus on multiple behaviors at the same time. In our country, more studies about the adult population are needed to support the observed findings of our study and therefore allow for a certain generalization of the observations.
