Notes: ¹AIC = Akaike, ²BIC = Bayesian, ³χ2 = chi-square goodness of fit statistic; ⁴df = degrees of freedom; ⁵RMSEA (≤0.08) = Root Mean Square Error of Approximation; ⁶CFI (≥0.95) = Comparative Fit Index; ⁷TLI (≥0.95) = Tucker Lewis Index; ⁸SRMR (≤0.08) = Standardized Square Root Mean Residual; ⁹EFA = Exploratory Factor Analysis; ¹⁰WRMR (≤1.0) = Weighted Root Mean Square Residual; ¹¹CFA = Confirmatory Factor Analysis; All goodness-of-fit tests were statistically significant at p < 0.0001
