Abstract

In this study, we conducted Latent Transition Analysis to identify subgroups of subclinical social anxiety and impulsivity in a longitudinal sample of Swedish early adolescents. We identified stable subgroups with high levels of social anxiety and impulsivity (more stable for girls), as well as links to internalizing outcomes later on.
