Combined adherence versus top latent clinical components from PLSR model. Corresponds to a partial least squares regression of combined adherence (aerosolized medication and airway clearance). Outcomes are labelled in red text as AERO and AC, respectively. Input variables labelled in black text are abbreviated as body mass index and age of child (bmi and chAge, respectively); number of child’s pulmonary exacerbations in prior year (exacer); parent having more than one child with CF (gt1chCF); distance travelled to CF center (Miles); self-efficacy (SelfEff); gender, age and education level of parent (PtGen, PtAge and Ed, respectively); degree of religiosity (DUR); extent of negative spiritual coping (NRC); parent depression score (CESD). Inputs contributing unique explanatory value to these two outcomes are located on outermost circles, suggesting that self-efficacy is the primary predictor of combined adherence, followed by distance travelled to CF center and body mass index
