q3 i? Constraining structural paths across intervention/control groups (ΔCFI = .003) and across boys and girls (ΔCFI = .002) did not significantly change model fit. → Xia 2016

Xia, M., Fosco, G. M., & Feinberg, M. E. (2016). Examining Reciprocal Influences Among Family Climate, School Attachment, and Academic Self-Regulation: Implications for School Success. Journal of Family Psychology, 30(4), 442-452. https://doi.org/10.1037/fam0000141

q3 · i? · associational · r2

Multiple-group invariance tests in the longitudinal SEM compared constrained and freely estimated models; the intervention/control comparison yielded "negligible change in overall model fit (ΔCFI =.003)", and the boys/girls comparison ΔCFI = .002, both below the .01 criterion.

"Constraining paths to be equal across the intervention and control groups resulted in negligible change in overall model fit (ΔCFI =.003), indicating that the pattern of associations among the variables was consistent across groups."
