Note(s): This table presents estimates and statistics for McDonald’s Omega (ω) and Cronbach’s Alpha (α), and Gelman-Rubin's R-hat statistic. The “Posterior Mean” column displays the average estimate obtained from Bayesian analysis. The “95% CI” columns provide the 95% confidence intervals for each estimate (lower and upper bounds). The R-hat statistic assesses the convergence of the Bayesian analysis, with a value of 1.00 indicating satisfactory convergence
