Items paraphrased for brevity. All parent-reported ICU except if stated. MI =modification indices. In the three-factor bifactor model with MI, error terms of the following items were allowed to correlate: 15 with 07; 15 with 11; 22 with 12; 20 with 11; 20 and 15. In addition, items 8, 3, 5, and 13 were specified to only have general CU factor variance (no specific factor variance). Note that a 2BF (i.e., general CU factor and two specific factors of callous and uncaring) ran into estimation problems as the uncaring items loaded strongly (all loadings > .70) onto the general factor. Thus, the two-correlated factor appears to offer a more parsimonious method to express the variance in these two factors.
