apar: number of estimated parameters.
bchi-square statistic
cCFI: Comparative Fit Index.
dRMSEA: Root Mean Squared Error of Approximation.
eSRMR: Standard Root Mean Residual.
*Best fit indices are highlighted with asterisks.
i For model 6a standard errors could not be computed and the information matrix could not be inverted. This may be a symptom of a non-identifiable model. Therefore, the parameters of this model are shown in parenthesis.
