Note. χ² = Chi-Square; df = degrees of freedom; χ²_diff = Chi-square difference testing between k and k-1 when k is the number of factors; CFI = Comparative fit index; TLI = Tucker-Lewis Index; SRMR = Standardized Root Mean Residual; RMSEA = Root Mean Square Error of Approximation; CI = confidence interval.
