Model fit statistics for unitary (unidimensional), pentagonal (multidimensional), and bifactor models of psychosis based on PANSS, YMRS and MADRS symptom ratings
LL | FP | AIC | BIC | SABIC | |
---|---|---|---|---|---|
Unidimensional (unitary) model (Model A) | –35660.2 | 153 | 71626.4 | 72354.2 | 71868.3 |
Multidimensional (pentagonal) model with five correlated specific factors (Model B) | –33615.3 | 163 | 67556.5 | 68331.9 | 67814.3 |
Bifactor model with one general factor and five specific symptom factors (Model C) | –33253.0 | 204 | 66914.1 | 67884.5 | 67236.6 |
Bifactor model with one general factor, two factors for non‐affective and affective psychosis, and five specific symptom factors (Model D) | –32739.2 | 255 | 65988.4 | 67201.4 | 66391.6 |
Bifactor model with two factors for non‐affective and affective psychosis and five specific symptom factors (model E) | –33372.9 | 204 | 67153.7 | 68124.2 | 67476.3 |
PANSS – Positive and Negative Syndrome Scale, YMRS – Young Mania Rating Scale, MADRS – Montgomery‐Åsberg Depression Rating Scale, LL – log‐likelihood, AIC – Akaike information criterion, BIC – Bayesian information criterion, SABIC – sample size‐adjusted Bayesian information criterion. All response vectors with at least one response were analyzed (N=860). Model D provides the best model fit, as indicated by lower BIC, AIC and SABIC compared to other models.
