CFI Comparative Fit Index; RMSEA Root Mean Squared Error of Approximation; CI Confidence Intervals; SRMR Standardized Root Mean Square Residual; Δ S-Bχ2 Satorra–Bentler scaled chi Square difference; ∆df difference degrees of freedom. Selected models are in bold. a Model includes a covariance between error terms of 2 items. b Model includes residual variance of a first-order indicator constrained to 0 for identification.
