“…RMSEA is a Root-mean-square error of approximation (RMSEA) that could be said as an ‘absolute fit index’, with 0 indicating the ‘best fit and values > 0 suggesting a worse fit [ 85 ]. Values of 0.05 or below indicate a close-fitting model, while values between/up to .08 or 0.10 are deemed acceptable [ 89 , 90 ].…”

“…In multi-group analysis, various parameter restrictions are needed to find out the most suitable path model ( Lee and Whittaker, 2021 ). After comparing the adaptation indexes of the baseline model (i.e., the unconstrained model), the measurement weights model, the structural weights model, the structural covariances model, the structural residuals model, and the measurement residuals model.…”

IntroductionThe rapid development of animal husbandry has brought many problems such as ecological environmental pollution and public health damage. The resource utilization of livestock manure is the key way to deal with the above crisis and turn waste into treasure.MethodsBased on the theory of perceived value, this paper uses multi-group structural equation model to explore the driving mechanism of perceived value on the resource utilization behavior of livestock manure.Results and discussionThe results showed that: (1) The resource utilization behavior of livestock manure followed the logic of “cognitive level → cognitive trade-off → perceived value → behavioral intention → behavioral performance.” Perceived benefit and perceived risk have positive and reverse driving effects on perceived value, respectively. Perceived value has a positive driving effect on behavioral intention. The behavioral intention has a positive driving effect on utilization behavior. (2) Among the observed variables of perceived benefits, ecological benefits have the greatest impact; Among the observed variables of perceived risk, economic risk has the greatest impact. Among the observed variables of perceived value, Significance cognition has the greatest influence. Among the observed variables of behavioral intention, utilization intention has the greatest influence. (3) The perceived value has a differential effect on the utilization behavior of livestock manure resources of different part-time farmers, and the driving effect is more obvious for full-time farmers.ConclusionsTherefore, it is necessary to improve the resource utilization system of livestock manure, increase the channel for realizing the output of manure resources, strengthen technical assistance and policy subsidies, and implement policies according to local conditions to improve the overall perceived value of farmers.

“…We then applied multigroup CFA to test the measurement invariance across gender of attachment insecurity and forgiveness measures. Indeed, metric invariance (i.e., equal factor loadings) needs to be established prior to testing for invariance of structural path coefficients across groups [ 54 ]. To test for measurement invariance, configural (equal factor structure) and metric (equal factor loadings) invariance models were compared.…”

(1) Background: There is abundant evidence linking attachment insecurity to lower levels of interpersonal forgiveness. However, this association has been almost exclusively explored in people in a different-sex couple relationship, and there is little evidence referring to gay, lesbian, and bisexual (LGB) people in a same-sex relationship. The present study examines the association between romantic attachment and dyadic forgiveness in individuals involved in a same-sex couple relationship. (2) Methods: A total of 248 participants (52.8% female) aged 18–67 years (mean age: 31.02 ± 9.39) completed the Experiences in Close Relationships questionnaire and the Transgression-Related Interpersonal Motivation Inventory. (3) Results: Structural equation modeling showed that attachment avoidance was more strongly associated with dyadic forgiveness than attachment anxiety. Higher levels of attachment anxiety and avoidance were both linked to higher levels of avoidance motivation in response to partner transgressions, and higher attachment avoidance was linked to lower benevolence motivation. Multigroup analyses indicated a gender-specific association between attachment avoidance and revenge motivations, which was positive and significant among men only. (4) Conclusions: In the present study, we have identified that attachment avoidance plays a more prominent role in the tendency to forgive in same-sex couples. Implications at both theoretical and clinical practice levels are discussed.
