Note. Multi-group SEM allowed predictive paths to be freely estimated and varied across mothers and fathers. Gender invariant nested SEM constrained predictive paths to be equal across mothers and fathers. χ2=chi-square value. Df=degrees of freedom. SCF=scaling correction factor. TRd=Satorra-Bentler chi-square difference. CD=difference test scaling correction. RMSEA=root mean square error of approximation. CFI=comparative fit index. TLI=Tucker-Lewis index. SRMR=standardized root mean square residual.
