In this result, The higher schizotypal personality trend, especially the anxious overcern and helplessness were very higher, and higher were self-expectation, social approval need, problem avoidance. On the contrary, the lower were perfectionnism and dependency. And no correlation between schizotypal personality with blame proneness & emotional irresponsibility. The factors of schizotypal personality which have high correlation with irrational belief were social anxiety and emotional constriction, and isolation-seeking, idea of reference, shrinking from interpersonal relationship.
