“…Accordingly, the final model was selected based on the weighted root mean square residual (WRMR) as the fit index. According to Yu and Muthén () and DiStefano, Liu, Jiang, and Shi (), a good fitting model has WRMR values below 0.9. The current model had a WRMR value of 0.53, thus indicating a good fit.…”

The influence of an older sibling on preschoolers’ lie‐telling behavior

In the present study, children's (2-to 5-years old) lie-telling was examined in relation to theory of mind (first-order false belief understanding), executive functioning (measuring inhibitory control in conjunction with working memory), and presence of siblings in the home (no siblings vs. siblings; younger siblings vs. older siblings). Lie-telling was observed using a temptation resistance paradigm. Overall, of the 152 (74.9%) children who peeked at the toy, 73 (48%) lied during the temptation resistance paradigm. Children with higher scores on measures of first-order false belief understanding, and measures that relied on inhibitory control, were more likely to lie compared to their truthful counterparts. Additionally, children with older siblings were more likely to lie to the research assistant, and this relationship was independent of performance on cognitive tasks.Overall, results demonstrate that having an older sibling has an independent, direct effect on the development of young children's lie-telling abilities, irrespective of cognitive ability. These findings support the argument that lie-telling is a behavior that is facilitated by both cognitive and social factors. K E Y W O R D Stheory of mind, deception, executive function, siblings

“…RMSEA ranges from 0 to 1.0, with .08 or less indicating adequate model fit. WRMR ranges from 0 to 1, with lower values indicating better model fit (DiStefano, Liu, Jiang, & Shi, 2018). Although there is less simulation research on the WRMR, preliminary evaluation suggests a value of 1.0 or less indicates adequate model fit.…”

“…Values ≥0.90 were seen as acceptable and values ≥0.95 as good model fit for the CFI and TLI, whereas RMSEA values ≤0.80 and ≤0.50 were considered as acceptable and good model fit, respectively (Browne & Cudeck, 1992;Hu & Bentler, 1999). For the WRMR, estimates around one were seen as good model fit (DiStefano, Liu, Jiang, & Shi, 2018;Yu, 2002). The difference in fit between the 3-factor and 2-factor models was statistically tested using the Mplus DIFFTEST procedure, which computes differences in χ 2 values of nested models.…”

Psychometric properties and utility of the Responses to Positive Affect questionnaire (RPA) in a sample of people with bipolar disorder

et al. 2019

Objectives To evaluate the psychometric properties of the Responses to Positive Affect (RPA) questionnaire in a sample of persons with bipolar disorder (BD). Method Cross‐sectional survey study with 107 persons with BD. The original 3‐factor model of the RPA was compared with a 2‐factor model. Construct validity was determined with measures of well‐being, personal recovery, social role participation, and psychopathology and incremental validity was evaluated. Results The fit of the 3‐factor model was acceptable for most fit indices. Subscores of the RPA revealed a significant relationship with aspects of well‐being, personal recovery, and psychopathology. Dampening and self‐focused positive rumination explained additional variance in personal recovery above and beyond well‐being. Conclusions The RPA is an internally consistent and valid tool to assess positive emotion regulation processes in persons with BD. Specifically, the processes of dampening and emotion‐focused positive rumination seem to play an important role in BD.
