This also depends, for instance, on whether you consider things as an
overshooting region as being radiative. If you just want to check if the
criteria for convection is satisfied you have the following profile output
options

    !sch_stable ! 1 if grada > gradr, 0 otherwise
    !ledoux_stable ! 1 if gradL > gradr, 0 otherwise
