Table 5. Multivariate analysis of three models showing change in model fit (χ2) and degrees of freedom (df) when specified parameters are dropped from full ADE model (best fitting models in bold).

Model df AIC BIC −2LL
Cholesky ADE 9008 3875.84 −22588.23 21891.84
Independent ADE 9011 3876.25 −22596.21 21898.25
Common ADE 9015 3871.08 −22609.67 21901.08

AIC = Akaike Information Criterion. AIC describes the model with best goodness-of-fit combined with parsimony. BIC = Bayesian Information Criterion. −2LL = likelihood ratio chi-square test as a measure of goodness of fit.
