Flowchart of the Portuguese adaptation of the QCAE.
Fig 2.
Model 1 (left) and Model 2 (right) representing the first-order (Model 1) and the second-order (Model 2) structure of the QCEA-Portuguese version. Boxes represent observed variables (parcels) and circles represent latent factors. Straight arrows represent factor loadings. The curved, double-headed arrows represent covariations. P21 = Parcel 1 of Factor 2 (OS), etc.; PT = Perspective taking; OS = Online simulation; EC = Emotion contagion; PrR = Proximal responsivity; PeR = Peripheral responsivity.
