Note. Factors extracted using principal axis factoring. For Promax-rotated loadings, values of the Pattern matrix are shown, with values from the Structure matrix in parentheses. Loadings greater than .40 are shown in bold. TOA: Implicit Theories of Anxiety; TOI: Implicit Theories of Intelligence; TOE: Implicit Theories of Emotion. Scale items are listed in the Appendix.
