CFA, confirmatory factor analysis; CFI, comparative fit index; df, degrees of freedom; CFI Δ, difference in CFI; p, χ2 p-value, RMSEA, root mean square error of approximation; WRMR, weighted root mean square residual; χ2, model chi square; *the pattern of fixed and free parameters is the same; **the relative factor loadings are proportionally equal across groups; ***the relative indicator means are proportionally equal across groups.
