- Abstract
- The growing number of cases of non-communicable diseases is linked to unhealthy behaviors. The objective of this study in collaboration with Sciensano is to identify behavioral clusters in the Flemish adult population, their relationship with sociodemographic factors and intentions to change behavior to implement targeted health policies. To do this, we use various clustering methods, multinomial logistic regression and association analysis. The first section describes the objective of the study, the sample and the methods used. The second part focuses on the results obtained by performing analyses in R.
