Factorial Invariance Across Language at Wave 5 (English vs. Spanish) and Across Time (Wave 5 vs. Wave 6) for the Cultural Socialization Attitudes Measure (CSAM)

Model χ2(df) Δχ2df) p Constraint Tenable
Invariance across language at Wave 5
    Configural invariance 69.35 (10)
    Loading invariance 72.99 (14) 3.64 (4) 46 Yes
    Intercept invariance 77.76 (18) 4.77 (4) .31 Yes
Invariance across time (Wave 5 vs. Wave 6)
    Configural invariance 79.67 (29)
    Loading invariance 80.66 (33) .99 (4) .91 Yes
    Intercept invariance 81.50 (37) .84 (4) .93 Yes

Note. The configural invariance model placed no constraints across groups, the loading invariance model constrained the factor loadings across groups to be equal, and the intercept invariance model constrained the intercepts across groups to be equal (Little et al., 2007).
