MSPSS, Multidimensional Scale of Perceived Social Support; WLEIS, Wong and Law Emotional Intelligence Scale; SWLS, Satisfaction With Life Scale; BDI, Beck Depression Inventory-II; χ2, chi square; df, degrees of freedom; p, level of signification; CN, critical N; CFI, comparative fit index; IFI, incremental fit index; TLI, tucker lewis index; NNFI, non-normed fit index; SRMR, standardized root mean square residual; RMSEA, root mean square error of approximation; CI, confidence interval; AIC, Akaike information criterion; BIC, Bayesian information criterion; γ-Hat, gamma hat index; adj γ-Hat, adjusted gamma hat index. Indicative that the RMSEA is significant at 0.05. In all variants, “+” is indicative that the statistic meets the recommended thresholds of good fit: ρ(χ2) ≥ 0.05, χ2/df ≤ 2, [GFI CFI, IFI, NNFI] ≥ 0.95, SRMR ≤ 0.08, and RMSEA ≤ 0.06 (Hu and Bentler, 1999), [γ-Hat, adj γ-Hat] ≥ 0.95 (Fan and Sivo, 2007), Hoelter CN > 200 (Kenny, 2015). These threshold values have been included together with the indices themselves to facilitate their interpretation.
