Two-Factor Measurement Model of the Patient Health Questionnaire-9 (PHQ-9).On the right, the boxes represent the PHQ-9 items (indicator variables). Circular arrows that point back to the indicator variables represent item error variances.

The bidirectional arrow between latent factors represents a correlation
