“…The first point to note is that, except for the structural model, the more constrained the model, the more AIC and BIC decreased, and best fit was observed for the F-SoAS two-factor structure. Second, the value of p was non-significant for each invariance test, except for the structural model which remains, it should be recognized, a fairly demanding condition rarely reach in practice ( Gana and Broc, 2019 ). Therefore, apart from this consideration, it may be stated that the hypothesis of equivalence of the measurement model across genders is demonstrated.…”

Sense of Agency (SoA) is the subject of growing attention. It corresponds to the capacity to claim authorship over an action, associate specific consequences with a specific action, and it has been claimed to be a key point in the development of consciousness. It can be measured using the Sense of Agency Scale (SoAS), originally proposed by Tapal et al. (2017) , who distinguished it into two-factor: Sense of Positive Agency (SoPA) and Sense of Negative Agency (SoNA). This study reports on the first adaptation of the SoAS into another language, French. For this French version of the Sense of Agency Scale (F-SoAS), we analyzed responses from a sample of 517 native French-speakers. Our results indicate that the scale has good psychometric properties. Factor analysis confirms the same two-factor model as Tapal et al. (2017) . However, some items were removed due to insufficient loadings with factors, leading to a short version of the scale (7-item). Furthermore, we observed gender differences that are consistent with findings in the literature. Specifically, women report higher SoNA scores and lower SoPA scores than men. We conclude by discussing possible uses and future directions for the scale.

“…Therefore, for the development of explanatory or predictive models, the variance portion can be used as a unique criterion to show the explanatory, or predictive, capacity in models that are developed with SEM. Given the noncompliance of the multivariate normality, and designed for ordinal data [62], the analysis included Maximum Likelihood estimation with robust standard errors (MLM), which uses the Satorra-Bentler scaled test statistic [63]. In all the analyses, p values below 0.05 indicate statistical significance.…”

This study aimed to develop an explanatory model of sexual satisfaction in same-sex attracted individuals with a partner, based on personal and interpersonal variables. The participants were 410 men (mean age = 29.24, SD = 9.84) and 410 women (mean age = 29, SD = 8.57) who maintained a relationship with another person of the same sex. Internalized homophobia was considered as a personal variable, and as interpersonal variables, the dimensions of attachment (anxiety and avoidance), sexual functioning, dyadic adjustment, relationship satisfaction, the components of the Interpersonal Exchange Model of Sexual Satisfaction, the number of sexual costs and the number of sexual rewards were considered. The degree to which sexual satisfaction was related to these variables was examined separately, for both men and women, through multiple linear regression models within the framework of structural equation models. The results indicated that sexual satisfaction is associated in a negative sense with internalized homophobia, the number of sexual costs, anxiety, and avoidance, and in a positive sense with the remaining variables. Relational variables were more relevant in the explanation of sexual satisfaction. The clinical implications are discussed.

“…In the fourth model (D), two factors were also specified; however, the items that configured one factor were those related to the physical-view and achievement-view, and the other factor was configured by items referring to the physical-concern and achievement-concern. The following indices were used as criteria of adjustment of the data to the models, as suggested by the specialized literature (Gana and Broc 2019): ratio between chi-square and degrees of freedom (χ 2 /df), Comparative Fit Index (CFI), Goodness-of-Fit Index (GFI), Normed Fit Index (NFI), Tucker-Lewis Index (TLI), Root Mean Square Error of Approximation (RMSEA), and Akaike Information Criterion (AIC).…”
