Note. λ1, λ2, λ3 = first three eigenvalues of the polychoric correlation matrix from principal component analyses (PCAs); UNIDI = UNIDI index, where UNIDI index > 5 shows good support of unidimensionality (Martínez Arias, 1995, p. 297); CFI = comparative fit index; TLI = Tucker-Lewis Index; RMSEA = root-mean-square error of approximation; WRMR = weighted root-mean-square residual; LSRP = Levenson Self-Report Psychopathy Scale; PAI ANT = Personality Assessment Inventory—Antisocial Features Scale; PPI-SF = Psychopathic Personality Inventory-Short Form; SRP-II = Self-Report Psychopathy Scale-II.
