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.

Eating disorder examination questionnaire: Factor structure for adolescent girls and boys

TL;DR: Three new subscales (Shape and Weight Concerns, Restriction and Preoccupation and Eating Concern) are suggested for use in future research which uses the EDE-Q with community samples of adolescents.

Relationship between social determinants of health and processes and outcomes in adults with type 2 diabetes: validation of a conceptual framework

TL;DR: This study provides the first validation of a conceptual framework for the relationship between socioeconomic and psychological components of social determinants of health and diabetes outcomes and associated with glycemic control through a direct association and mediators/moderators of self-care, access to care and processes of care.

Antecedents and consequences of game addiction

TL;DR: The results indicates that socio-economic status, smoking, online gaming, computer gaming, and mother employment status increased game addiction; whereas, gender (female) and mother education level decreased game addiction.

Ontological confusions but not mentalizing abilities predict religious belief, paranormal belief, and belief in supernatural purpose.

TL;DR: Core ontological confusions emerged as the best predictor, while promiscuous teleology predicted only a small proportion of variance, and the relationships of mentalizing abilities with supernatural beliefs were not substantially mediated by cognitive biases.

Modeling relationships between physical fitness, executive functioning, and academic achievement in primary school children

TL;DR: In this paper, the relationship between physical fitness and academic achievement in children has received much attention, however, whether executive functioning plays a mediating role in this relationship is unclear, and the aim of this study therefore was to investigate the relationships among physical fitness, executive functioning, and academic achievements.

Cutoff criteria for fit indexes in covariance structure analysis : Conventional criteria versus new alternatives

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.
