Note: Measured variables are shown as a box with labels corresponding to those shown in the questionnaire. Latent
constructs are shown as an oval. Each measured variable has an error term associated with it, but the error terms are
not shown in the exhibit for simplicity. Two headed connections indicate covariance between constructs. One headed
connectors indicate a causal path from a construct to an indicator (measured) variable.
