However, dependency is a heterogeneous and complex issue, and the dependency of each older adult is a synergistic combination of several functional activities. In this study, we assess the pattern of multidimensional dependency of older adults based on ADL, IADL, visual impairment, difficulty in climbing a flight of stairs, pushing or pulling objects, depressive symptoms, cognitive impairment, marital status, and economic distress. It is important to classify the dependency status of older adults because this will be key to evaluating the needs for care, and\u00a0plan services that effectively cater for the needs of the older adults. The classification into different latent classes means that older adults within each class have the same needs of dependency but different needs between the latent classes. Our objective is to identify patterns of multidimensional dependency in older adults.<\/jats:p>\n              <\/jats:sec><jats:sec>\n                <jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title>\n                <jats:p>Data from the Longitudinal Ageing Study in India (LASI) Wave-1, was used, the analytical sample consisted of 32,827 individuals of age 45\u2009years and above. LCA was used to identify the multidimensional dependency class. LCA was conducted in <jats:italic>R<\/jats:italic> statistical package, using the poLCA package. The optimal number of classes was selected based on the comparison of model fit statistics. Independent variables were incorporated to explore the association between these variables and the latent class.<\/jats:p>\n              <\/jats:sec><jats:sec>\n                <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                <jats:p>Based on nine indicator variables, three latent classes were identified: \u201cActive Older adults\u201d, \u201cModerately independent\u201d and \u201cPsychological and physically impaired\u201d. The \u201cActive older adults\u201d profile is comprised of older adults who have a very low probability of needing help for any ADL, IADL and other activities. The \u201cModerately independent\u201d class were characterized as those older adults who were visually impaired but less likely to need help for IADL activities. The \u201cPsychological and physically impaired\u201d, the smallest of all classes, comprised of older adults with poor dependency status.<\/jats:p>\n              <\/jats:sec><jats:sec>\n                <jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title>\n                <jats:p>In this study, we found that the dependency status of older adults which is based on several domains of functional activity has been classified into three distinct classes.
