The Cronbach's a coefficients of the questionnaire and each of the aspects are 0.85, 0.80, 0.886, and 0.77 (>0.7), respectively. Confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) of each of the aspects are c2/df = 3.99, 2.26, and 3.32; Goodness-of-fit index (GFI) = 0.91, 0.97, and 0.92; Root mean square error of approximation (RMSEA) = 0.06, 0.04, and 0.05; Comparative fit index (CFI) = 0.91, 0.96, and 0.90.
