Time-Invariant and Time-Varying Factor Correlations from Bivariate Trait-State-Occasion Models
| 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 6 | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1. Borderline personality disorder | — | .216b | −.324a | −.321a | −.300a | .635a |
| 2. Openness | −.146 | — | .104b | .558a | .243a | −.031 |
| 3. Conscientiousness | −.380a | .185a | — | .480a | .273a | −.693a |
| 4. Extraversion | −.336a | .498a | .473a | — | .414a | −.651a |
| 5. Agreeableness | −.477a | .271a | .283a | .573a | — | −.325a |
| 6. Neuroticism | .737a | −.040 | −.575a | −.568a | −.092 | — |
Note. N = 662. Correlations reflect associations between factors extracted in “bivariate” trait-state-occasion models. Time-invariant (i.e., trait) factor correlations appear below the diagonal, and time-varying (i.e., occasion) residual factor correlations above the diagonal. For example, in a joint trait-state-occasion model of borderline personality disorder and Neuroticism, the correlation between the time-invariant factors—reflecting the perfectly stable components of these two constructs across the study timeframe—was .737. Thus, 15 bivariate trait-state-occasion models were estimated to compute the correlations presented here.
