Lower values of RMSEA, AIC, and BIC indicate better model fit. Δ refers to the change in χ2 and df compared to the previous model. The change in χ2 for nested models follows a χ2 distribution with df equal to the change in df, with significant differences indicating significant improvement in model fit. df, degrees of freedom; Par., parameter.
