“…The two models include: a one-factor model (all items) and a two-factor model (self-esteem positive comprising of items SelfEs1, SelfEs2, SelfEs3, SelfEs4, SelfEs10, and self-esteem negative comprising of items SelfEs5, SelfEs6, SelfEs7, SelfEs8, SelfEs9). The specified models in this study allowed items to load only onto a single factor, with uncorrelated measurement error terms as suggested in previous research (Debowska et al 2017;Hyland et al 2014;McKay et al 2014;Boduszek et al 2012Boduszek et al , 2013. Table 3 presents both absolute and comparative fit indices for each model.…”
