The level of congruence of the hypothesized structural model with the empirical data is: χ2/df (CMIN/DF) =.430, RMR=.007, RMSEA=.307, GFI=.999, AGFI=.958, TLI=.992 and CFI=1.000. The findings demonstrate that the confirmatory factor analysis supports the congruence of the leader-member exchange (LMX) model with perceptual data.
