ICLUST output using the maximum beta criterion. Path coefficients represent reliability-correctedcorrelations. For clusters, alpha was used for the correction; for items, item–total correlations were used as anestimate of reliability. Note that the final purified solution in Table 1 is slightly different from the clusteringsolution in the figure (see footnote 1). C Cluster.

Ordinary least squares factor analysis was based on tetrachoric correlations. Items 12, 24, and 28 were includedin the analysis. Items listed are truncated versions. Items with loadings in bold correspond to items also assigned to the corresponding cluster.18, 20, 21, 22, 24, 31, 33, 35, 37, 38, 44, 45, and 46) represents amerging of mostly Mood Volatility items (11 out of 15) and theExcitement items (six out of eight). This is consistent with our datato the extent that these two clusters are highly correlated andmerge into a single cluster in a two-cluster model. Our SocialVitality cluster, however, is represented by three different factorsin Rawlings et al.’s analysis. Although items reflecting the secondfactor (Items 5, 9,12, 13, 19, 23, 26, 28, 34, 36, 41, 42, and 43)were scattered across the subclusters of Social Vitality, itemsloading high on the third factor (Items 2, 3, 4, 6, 25, 29, 32, and 40)reflected exhibitionist tendencies and mostly clustered together(six out of eight items). Items loading highly on the fourth factor(Items 1, 14, 16, 27, 47, and 48) reflected the reverse-scored itemsof Ordinariness and entirely cluster together before merging intothe larger Social Vitality cluster (see Figure 1 for the location ofthese items in the cluster hierarchy).Estimates of reliability. Before testing validity correlationswith our subscales, we compared estimates of reliability of thesubscales (shown in Table 3). Although coefficient beta maybe used as an estimate of the proportion of variance in a scaleaccounted for by a general factor, h may actually be a moreaccurate estimate of the general factor saturation than coefficient
