Much debate in schizotypal research has centred on the factor structure of the Schizotypal Personality Questionnaire (SPQ), with research variously showing higher-order dimensionality consisting of two to seven dimensions.
In addition, cross-cultural support for the stability of those factors remains limited.
Here, we examined the factor structure of the SPQ among British and Trinidadian adults.
Participants from a White British subsample (n=351) resident in the UK and from an African Caribbean subsample (n=284) resident in Trinidad completed the SPQ.
The higher-order factor structure of the SPQ was analysed through confirmatory factor analysis, followed by multiple-group analysis for the model of best fit.
Between-group differences for sex and ethnicity were investigated using multivariate analysis of variance in relation to the higher-order domains.
The model of best-fit was the four-factor structure, which demonstrated measurement invariance across groups.
Additionally, these data had an adequate fit for two alternative models: (a) 3-factor and (b) modified 4-factor model.
The British subsample had significantly higher scores across all domains than the Trinidadian group, and men scored significantly higher on the disorganised domain than women.
The four-factor structure received confirmatory support and, importantly, support for use with populations varying in ethnicity and culture.
