Within-dyad invariance tests using a mean- and variance-adjusted weight least squares (WLSMV) estimator are presented here. Good model fit (noted in bold) was established by a comparative fit index (CFI) > .95 and root mean square error of approximation (RMSEA) < .06. Measurement invariance at each level (noted in bold) was established by a decrement in CFI < .01 and an increase in RMSEA < .015.
