Note: ∗ = constrained to equality (note that these are standardized estimates so they will no longer be equal). Proteins not substantively loaded onto the factor were not depicted. CFA confidence intervals that include the original EFA estimate are bolded. MIDUS = Midlife in the United States, EFA = Exploratory Factor Analysis, CFA = Confirmatory Factor Analysis, CI = Confidence Interval.
