Model fit statistics

Statistic Description Interpretation Final model Final model + age Final model + BMI
Χ2/df Chi-square statistic normalized to model degrees of freedom that accounts for sample size ≤ 2 indicates a good fitting model 1.09 0.78 0.99
RMSEA Root Mean Square Error of Approximation ≤ 0.07 indicates a good fitting model 0.05 < 0.001 < 0.001
CFI Comparative Fit Index is a revised form of the Normed-Fit Index that accounts for sample size and is normed to 0–1.0 ≥ 0.95 indicates a good fitting model 0.97 1.0 1.0
TLI Tucker-Lewis Index, or Non-Normed Fit Index, is a revised form of the Normed-Fit Index considered more appropriate for small sample sizes ≥ 0.95 indicates a good fitting model 0.91 1.27 1.01
