This study aimed to examine whether the same clusters of individuals with schizotypy as reported in Western samples are present in a Chinese sample. Cluster analysis was conducted on the responses of 418 individuals to the Chapman Psychosis-Proneness Scales. Results revealed that similar clusters of schizotypy exist in Chinese and Western samples, and that the emotional and neuropsychological symptoms they manifest are consistent with their cluster type.This study aimed to examine whether the same clusters of individuals with schizotypy as reported in Western samples are present in a Chinese sample.
