Nested bifactor model for Positive Emotionality/Surgency. The Common PE factor captures what is shared across all PE items, while the each specific factor captures what is unique to the items in that subscale. Surgency items did not load adequately on Common PE, and are therefore modeled as a separate factor. Numbers in boxes are EATQ-R item numbers; (R) indicates that the item is reverse coded. Numbers on straight arrows are factor loadings. Numbers on curved arrows between factors are latent correlations. Dashed lines indicate weak correlations <.30, and solid lines represent stronger correlations. Curved arrows between item boxes indicate model modifications allowing the residual variance of the items to correlate.
