overall fit of the one-factor model was also supported by an absence of any localized areas of strain. None of the standardized residuals from the model were larger than 1.0 (as these are roughly equivalent to z-scores, a value of 1.96 is often used as a marker of statistical significance at p<.05). Standardized factor loadings of each of the individual internalizing syndromes are given in Table 1. All freely estimated unstandardized factor loadings were statistically significant (ps < .001). As shown, generalized anxiety had the strongest loading on the internalizing factor, followed by depression, panic attack, and neuroticism. Factor scores were extracted from Mplus and used in the biometrical analyses described below. The total Marital Quality score was significantly associated with the Internalizing factor score (r = −0.28, p < .01).
