Note. PAMI Approximate Partial Measurement Invariance Model. PPp Prior-posterior checking p-value (values close to .50 and 95% Credible Interval containing zero indicate good fit). * 95% Credible Interval of posterior density does not include zero. DIC Deviance Information Criterion. BIC Bayesian Information Criterion
