Abstract
In this study we explored the development of somatic complaints among adolescents
and young adults aged 16 to 30 years in Switzerland. Using data from the Transitions from
Education to Employment (TREE) study, we applied a hidden Markovian model with covariates
to cluster trajectories representing the sum of eight somatic complaints. The resulting
groups differed mainly in terms of gender, reading literacy, and substance use. The trajectories
of somatic complaints were also related to the number of critical events experienced by the
respondents.
