df, degrees of freedom; Δχ2, chi-square differences; Δdf, degrees of freedom differences; CFI, comparative fit index; TLI, Tucker-Lewis index; RMSEA, root mean square error of approximation; SRMR, standardized root mean square residual.
N = 247.
Model 1 (six-factor model) includes all study variables. Model 2 (five-factor model) combines on-the-job embeddedness and off-the-job embeddedness as one factor and considers the other four variables as four independent factors. Model 3 (four-factor model) combines on-the-job embeddedness and off-the-job embeddedness as one factor, promotion focus and prevention focus as one factor, and considers the other two variables as two independent factors. Model 4 (three-factor model) combines on-the-job embeddedness and off-the-job embeddedness as one factor, promotion focus and prevention focus as one factor, and career adaptability and proactive career behavior as one factor. Model 5 (one-factor model) combines all six variables as one factor.
Δχ2 and Δdf reflect differences of χ2 and df between the corresponding model and Model 1. All χ2 and Δχ2 are significant at the p < 0.001 level.
