Note(s): ^aComposite reliability = (square of the summation of the factor loadings)/[square of the summation of the factor loadings) + (square of the summation of the error variance)]; ^bAVE = (Summation of squared factor loadings)/(Summation of squared factor loadings) (Summation of error variances); α = Cronbach's alpha
