Visual representation of the results of the latent class analysis. Methods: This analysis was conducted with latent class analysis. The figure shows the conditional item probabilities for the seven different indicators regarding the membership to one of the three classes. The indicators were posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD), disturbances in self-organization (DSO), dissociative symptoms (ADES), internalizing problems (INT), externalizing problems (EXT), interpersonal problems (IP), thought problems (TP). Results: The analysis yielded three different latent classes, which were labelled according to their characteristics on the indicators. The resilient class (green) showed low rates on all indicators, the mixed psychopathology class (blue) showed high rates for dissociative symptoms, internalizing problems, and thought problems, moderate rates of externalizing problems and PTSD, and low rates of DSO and social problems, and the high psychopathology class (red) showed high rates on all indicators, except PTSD
