Abstract

Background: Most factor analytic PANSS studies have identified a 5-factor model, yet limited consensus exists among these solutions (Schizophrenia Research, 85, 273–279). This psychometric inconsistency is notable given the relative homogeneity of the samples examined to date, most of which consist solely of persons with schizophrenia. The aim of this study was twofold; 1) identify the PANSS factor structure in a heterogeneous sample consisting of marginally housed persons with psychiatric illnesses, including high rates of psychosis, and 2) determine the temporal stability of the factor solution.
