Note: for the confirmatory factor analysis 6 children were excluded because of their large contribution to the multivariate kurtosis, while five children were excluded because they did not have complete data on all of the subscales. RMSEA = root mean square error of approximation; AIC = Akaike information criterion, and df = degrees of freedom. (MT, UPE) = correlated error between Magical Thinking and Unusual Perceptual Experiences; DO UPE = path between the Disorganization component and Unusual Perceptual Experiences. CP Social Anxiety = path between the Cognitive/Perceptual Component and Social Anxiety.
