Notes: χ² is more likely to reject fit with larger N and more variables
RMSEA is more likely to reject fit with smaller N and lower DF
BIC_s < 0 indicates good model fit. When comparing similar models, the more negative BIC indicates better fit
^a Scaled χ² [56]
^b Schwarz BIC [47]
^c Model includes no correlated errors
^d Model includes three correlated errors based on a priori expectations
