“…The initial model (Figure 1) was developed through the creation of four variables and a latent variable (physical self-concept) formed by physical appearance, physical condition, perceived competence, self-esteem, and perceived strength. This initial model showed the following fit indices, MRLχ 2 = 187.099, p < 0.05, CFI = 0.90, TLI = 0.87, SRMR = 0.09, and RMSA = 0.10, which were not acceptable; therefore, it was decided to restructure the model following the principles of previous research where such predictions are justified, such as the following: the predictive role of perceived competence in self-esteem [60]. In this sense, the model was restructured based on the proposals of the theoretical model presented by Fox and Corbin (1989) [56], establishing self-concept as a multidimensional variable formed by different domains, whose most important domain is self-esteem followed by perceived competence, fitness, perceived strength, and appearance.…”
