Results of backward stepwise regression using the full set of variables of the BPRS. Eight items of the BPRS as independent variables were positively associated with the CGI-SCH score as a dependent variable, and four items were inversely associated with the CGI-SCH score. F-value < 2.000 as a criterion for removal (p < 0.001). R-squared was 0.7524 (p value of analysis of variance was less than 0.001), unstandardized β, standardized β, and the p value are shown.
