Structural paths from the WLSMV SEM (N=506). The article reports servant leadership "showed the strongest effect on self-efficacy" (β=0.505) and self-efficacy "predicted life satisfaction" (β=0.429; R2=0.393). The structural model explained 30.4% of variance in self-efficacy and 39.3% in life satisfaction.

"Servant leadership showed the strongest effect on self-efficacy (β=0.505, p0.001), which in turn predicted life satisfaction (β=0.429, p0.001; R2=0.393)."
