The Structural Equation Model estimated for women with type 2 diabetes (X2 = 21.8, df = 19, p = 0.294, RMSEA = 0.027, p-close = 0.786); men with type 2 diabetes (X2 = 21.2, df = 19, p = 0.324, RMSEA = 0.024, p-close = 0.7896); women with non-diabetes (X2 = 79.2, df = 19, p < 0,0001, RMSEA = 0,057, p-close = 0,166); and men with non-diabetes (X2 = 59.9, df = 19, p < 0.0001, RMSEA = 0.055, p-close = 0.266).
