Fig 1.
Exploratory partial correlation network for alexithymia, interoception and the Five-Factor Model of personality.
Nodes represent TAS-20 subscales (i.e. Difficulty Identifying Feelings [DIF], Difficulty Describing Feelings [DDF], Externally Oriented Thinking [EOT]), Big Five factors (i.e. Neuroticism [Neuro.], Extraversion [Extrav.], Openness [Open.], Agreeableness [Agree.], Conscientiousness [Consc.]), and MAIA subscales (Noticing [Notic.], Not-Distracting [NotD], Not-Worrying [NotW], Attention Regulation [AttReg], Emotional Awareness [EmoA], Self-Regulation [SelfR], Body Listening [BodyL], Body Trusting [BodyT]). Only connections higher than 0.1 are displayed in the figure; the plot for strength centrality metrics is on the right.
Table 1.
Mean (standard deviation in parentheses) values of MAIA total scores and subscores for the four groups with Low/High Alexithymia/Neuroticism.
F statistics, P value of one-way permutation ANOVAs performed for each variable. P values for post-hoc permutation t-tests are corrected with the Benjamin-Hochberg method.
