Note(s):

Table 3 presents the correlation matrix of latent constructs used in the study. The table is utilized to assess discriminant validity, ensuring that each construct is empirically distinct from the others. Discriminant validity is confirmed when the correlations between constructs remain below the threshold of 0.85, indicating that no significant multicollinearity exists among the variables (Fornell and Larcker, 1981; Kline, 2011). All interconstruct correlations in this matrix are within acceptable limits, supporting the discriminant validity of the model’s constructs
