Note: Boldface indicates factor loadings ≥ 0.350. We note that the loading for Premeditation in Factor 2 is larger than 1, however, in applying the oblique GEOMIN rotation, which allows for correlation between factors, the factor loadings are expressed as regression coefficients and not correlations. Thus factor loadings larger than 1 are possible.
