Note: In confirmatory factor analysis, the goodness-of-fit of any predicted latent structure is determined by the preponderance of several indices suggesting a well-fitted model. These fit indices include a nonsignificant chi-square value, chi-square degrees of freedom ratios < 2, a normed fit index (NFI), incremental fit index (IFI), and comparative fit index (CFI) < .90, and the root mean square error of approximation (RMSEA) ≤.10 degrees of freedom (17–19). Statistics meeting these thresholds are in bold face.
