Note: We had complete data for 94.61% of our sample of 612 cases (270 women; 342 men). Due to data collection occurring with the Qualtrics online survey tool, we did not experience extreme outliers for any of our measures. Moreover, our measures of skew and kurtosis suggest that our variables are in the acceptable range for normality in our path model. Brown [82] suggests that one has acceptable values for skew if they do not exceed + or − 3.00, and that kurtosis values are acceptable if they do not exceed + or − 10.00.
