EFA = exploratory factor analysis; the EFA and parallel analysis were conducted using the Mplus default settings for EFA with categorical indicators (using Oblique Geomin rotation); Boldface numbers denote eigenvalues higher than one; Italics numbers denote 95 percentile values that exceeded the respective empirical eigenvalues. 1 Derived from the tetrachoric correlation matrix as appropriate for categorical items. 2 Results from 1000 randomly generated eigenvalues.
