  1. Note. WLSMV Weighted least squares with mean and variance adjustment, df Degree of freedom, TLI Tucker-Lewis index, CFI Comparative fifit index, RMSEA Root mean square error of approximation; Model A: Radloff’s original four-factor model; Model B: two-factor model in which all negative items were combined into an independent factor and the remaining four positive items formed a second factor; Model C:three-factor model with depressed affect, positive affect and interpersonal problems; Model D: another three-factor model proposed by Wang et al. with depressed affect, positive affect and somatic complaints; Model E: five-factor model in Kim’s meta-analysis; Model F: another five-factor model in Kim’s meta-analysis
