Table A.17. Confirmatory Factor Analysis Results for EQ-i 2.0

The following table provides the fit statistics generated by the confirmatory factor analyses of the EQ-i 2.0. Values below .100 for the RMSEA and above .900 for all other fit statistics, which were found in the majority of the EQ-i 2.0 models, suggest the factor structure that emerged from the exploratory factor analyses was independently replicated in the confirmatory factor analysis.
