“…Employing confirmatory factor analysis, Adwere-Boamah and Curtis (1993) concluded that generally, the four-factor model did not fit their data. It is the contention in the present paper that using a more appropriate goodness-of-fit index (Bender-Bonett Normed Fit Index, NFI) rather than xZ produces interpretations of the findmgs that are different from those proposed by Adwere-Boamah and Curtis (1993).…”

“…The improvements (Table 1) for various models are minimal based on the variance-covariance increase. In- deed, the respecifications done by Adwere-Boamah and Curtis (1993) are unwarranted and violate the principle of parsimony. Respecification of models by increased parameterization (adding more factor loadmgs or more correlations among latent variables) always leads to improvement in fit and a decreased x2 (Anderson & Gerbing, 1988;Joreskog, 1993).…”

“…D'autres auteurs se sont intéressés au contenu des événements de vie à l'adolescence. Ainsi, l'étude de Violato et Holden (1988), reprise par Adwere-Boamah et Curtis (1993), montre que les préoccupations des adolescents se regroupent selon quatre thèmes : le soi social, le soi personnel, l'avenir/carrière et la santé. Dans une veine semblable, à l'occasion d'une étude récente (Perron, Coallier et Van Herwijnen, 1995), nous avons suggéré un système de classification qui repose sur sept catégories principales : le fait que l'événement concerne le soi ou quelqu'un d'autre, le sens de l'effet, la temporalité, le type de relation, le contexte, les personnages engagés dans l'événement et la signification de celui-ci.…”
