df, degrees of freedom; RMSEA, Root-Mean-Square Error of Approximation; TLI, Tucker-Lewis fit index; CFI, comparative fit index; AIC, Akaike’s information criterion. M0: one factor model with free loadings on all 11 observed variables (five EQi dimensions; five BFQ factors of personality and FIT global score); M1 one factor model with free loadings on EQi dimensions, loadings = 0.30 on BFQ factors and loading = 0.10 on FIT; M2 one factor model with free loadings on EQi dimensions, loadings = 0.10 on BFQ factors and loading = 0.30 on FIT; M3 one factor model with free loadings on EQi dimensions, loadings = 0.50 on BFQ factors and loading = 0.00 on FIT.
