Model 1—all items without co-variance of the two factors; model 2—E1 is removed; model 3—E1 removed and the two factors were allowed to correlate; model 4—C1 removed and the two factors were allowed to correlate; model 5—C1 and E1 removed and the two factors were allowed to correlate
RMSEA root mean square error of approximation, CFI confirmatory fit index, Chisq/df chi-square/degrees of freedom
