The Borderline Personality Features Scale for Children (BPFS - C): Factor Structure and Measurement Invariance across Time and Sex in a Community - Based Sample.

After combining the two samples, we then extended the ESEM model to test measurement invariance across several group configurations (gender, age, and gender × age), evaluated the potential linear and quadratic effects of age through MIMIC models, and then combined the two methods by adding the MIMIC age effects to the gender × age invariance model.

However, only 4 studies15 — 18 have done so, and none performed a single comprehensive assessment of convergent, discriminant, and criterion validity, measurement invariance across time, and internal reliability.

Both burnout and work engagement were also tested for measurement invariance across occupation and age.

Despite the above limitations, the contribution of the present study is that we have provided strong evidence for the construct validity, measurement invariance across gender, reliability and convergent / discriminant validity of the MLQ, Greek version.

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the following: 1) the construct validity of the Meaning in Life Questionnaire (Steger et al., 2006), Greek Version using different explorative and confirmative factorial analysis approaches like Bifactor EFA, ICM - CFA, Bifactor CFA and ESEM; 2) the measurement invariance of MLQ across gender; 3) the internal consistency reliability of the MLQ; and 4) the convergent and discriminant validity of the MLQ with measures of well - being and mental distress.

Furthermore, the results supporting the measurement invariance of the MLQ across gender are adding to previous research findings in several diverse cultures (e.g., Damasio & Koller, 2015; Boyraz, et al., 2013).

More specifically, the objectives of this study are the following: 1) To validate the construct validity of the Meaning in Life Questionnaire (Steger et al., 2006), Greek Version using both exploratory and confirmatory factorial analysis techniques like Bifactor EFA, Bifactor CFA and ESEM; 2) to examine measurement invariance of MLQ across gender; 3) to study the internal consistency reliability of the MLQ; and 4) to evaluate the convergent and discriminant validity of the MLQ with the constructs of well - being, hope, anxiety, depression, stress, hope and resilience.

Then, a multi-group CFA (MGCFA) was carried out in the entire sample (N = 1561) to test for the measurement invariance of the MLQ across gender.

The results of measurement invariance (c.f. Brown, 2015; Byrne, 2010; Kline, 2016; Schumacker & Lomax, 2015) of the cross-validated model emerged across gender suggested that all 10 items of the MLQ were invariant (full invariance) when used both by males and females.

The concept that a latent variable has the same measurement characteristics over time or across groups is known as measurement invariance (Collins and Lanza 2010).

The lack of measurement invariance in profiles across ages in our study suggests that children are very likely to show different patterns of problems across the preschool period.

The measurement invariance test favored a model with equal profiles across informants (BIC = 240,900) above a model with different profiles across informants (BIC = 241,011).

These results did not support the assumption of measurement invariance, indicating that profiles were different across ages.

The measurement invariance test showed that a model with varying profiles across all ages had a lower BIC (502,960) than models with equal profiles across ages 1.5 and 3 (BIC = 503,398), across ages 3 and 6 (BIC = 503,964), or across all ages (BIC = 505,547).

The model, which was developed with U.S. populations, has recently been used in other cultural contexts and, as such, the measurement invariance of the ISR - PYD model across cultural contexts must be assessed.

The findings regarding both the measurement and structural models fit the observed data well, and invariance was largely found across grandchildren's gender and age (4 — 7 vs. 8 — 12).

To address the research gaps noted above, the present study aimed to a) test the one - factor measurement model of the SLSS - English version in both male and female adolescents, and then b) examine measurement invariance of the one - factor model across gender groups, to determine if the one - factor model was confirmed in both gender groups.
