TLDR
In this article, a selection of fit indices that are widely regarded as the most informative indices available to researchers is presented, along with guidelines on their use and strategies for their use.Abstract:
The following paper presents current thinking and research on fit indices for structural equation modelling. The
paper presents a selection of fit indices that are widely regarded as the most informative indices available to researchers.
As well as outlining each of these indices, guidelines are presented on their use. The paper also provides reporting
strategies of these indices and concludes with a discussion on the future of fit indices.read more

TL;DR: The Oxford Utilitarianism Scale as discussed by the authors ) is a scale that measures individual differences in the "negative" (permissive attitude toward instrumental harm) and "positive" (impartial concern for the greater good) dimensions of utilitarian thinking as manifested in the general population.

The Visual Analogue Scale for Rating, Ranking and Paired-Comparison (VAS-RRP): A new technique for psychological measurement
Yao-Ting Sung,Jeng Shin Wu +1 more
TL;DR: A new scale, called the Visual Analogue Scale for Rating, Ranking, and Paired-Comparison (VAS-RRP), which can be used to collect rating, ranking, and paired-comparison data simultaneously, while avoiding the limitations of each of these data collection methods is proposed.

Pathways of empowerment perceptions, health literacy, self-efficacy, and self-care behaviors to glycemic control in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus.
TL;DR: A hypothesized model exploring the influencing pathways of empowerment perceptions, health literacy, self-efficacy, and self-care behaviors to glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1c) levels in patients with type 2 diabetes was validated.

Student engagement scale: development, reliability and validity
Selim Günüç,Abdullah Kuzu +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors developed a student engagement scale for higher education and evaluated the student's engagement with the university, campus, and class, and found that a higher student engagement score was regarded as an indicator that the student had a high level of engagement in higher education, while a lower score demonstrated that student engagement with campus and class was weak or that disengagement could occur.

Plant diversity represents the prevalent determinant of soil fungal community structure across temperate grasslands in northern China
Yongliang Chen,Tianle Xu,Stavros D. Veresoglou,Hang-Wei Hu,Hang-Wei Hu,Zhipeng Hao,Yajun Hu,Lei Liu,Ye Deng,Matthias C. Rillig,Baodong Chen +10 more
TL;DR: It is suggested that the regional-scale distribution pattern of soil fungal communities is predominantly mediated by plant community composition, and also by abiotic factors and geographical distance in arid and semi-arid temperate grasslands.

Cutoff criteria for fit indexes in covariance structure analysis : Conventional criteria versus new alternatives
Li-tze Hu,Peter M. Bentler +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the adequacy of the conventional cutoff criteria and several new alternatives for various fit indexes used to evaluate model fit in practice were examined, and the results suggest that, for the ML method, a cutoff value close to.95 for TLI, BL89, CFI, RNI, and G...

A new look at the statistical model identification
TL;DR: In this article, a new estimate minimum information theoretical criterion estimate (MAICE) is introduced for the purpose of statistical identification, which is free from the ambiguities inherent in the application of conventional hypothesis testing procedure.

Comparative fit indexes in structural models
TL;DR: A new coefficient is proposed to summarize the relative reduction in the noncentrality parameters of two nested models and two estimators of the coefficient yield new normed (CFI) and nonnormed (FI) fit indexes.
