*** p < 0.00, ** p < 0.01, and * p < 0.05, (two-tailed). n = 277. Diagonal elements (in bold) are the square roots of the AVE values. Off-diagonal elements are the correlations of the variables of interest to the study. Std.Dev: standard deviation. Bold indicates that diagonal elements (in bold) are the square roots of the AVE values.
