Note(s):

No. of observations: 150 (EU), 249 (UK), 94 (USA); latent variables have undergone a transformation process via the Box–Cox technique; Laavan typically ended after 35–42 iterations; ^bHypotheses are considered “Completely supported” when statistical significance is observed over all three tests (namely, OLS, path analysis and Sobel test). They are classified as “Moderately supported” if statistical significance is found in only two of the tests, and “Not supported” if they fail to meet these conditions. Significance levels: *p < 0.10; **p < 0.05; ***p < 0.01
