How to interpret SEM model fit results in AMOS


There are several fit indices used in SEM, and the criteria for satisfactory fit can vary depending on the specific model being tested, the sample size, and the complexity of the model. However, there are some commonly used fit indices that are recommended to be considered when assessing model fit in SEM. These include:
·         Chi-square divided by degrees of freedom (CMIN/DF*).
·         Root mean square error of approximation (RMSEA*).
·         Goodness of fit Index (GFI*).
·         Comparative fit index (CFI*).
·         Tucker-Lewis index (TLI *).

* Parameters/Values of particular interest

It's important to note that these fit indices are not independent of each other and should be considered together to assess model fit. Additionally, the choice of fit indices can vary depending on the research question and the specific model being tested.

Acronym

Explication

Accepted fit

Resulting fit

CMIN/DF

Chi-square divided by degrees of freedom

≤ 3 it indicates an acceptable fit

≤ 5 it indicates a reasonable fit

 

RMSEA

Root mean square error of approximation

≤ 0,05 are considered excellent

≤ 0,08 are considered acceptable

 

GFI

Goodness of fit Index

 

≥ 0,90 indicates a reasonable fit

≥ 0,95 is considered an excellent fit

 

CFI

Comparative fit index

≥ 0,90 indicates an acceptable fit

≥ 0,95 is considered an excellent fit

 

TLI

Tucker-Lewis index

≥ 0,9 indicates a reasonable fit

≥ 0,95 is considered an excellent fit
