Construct Validity and Confirmatory Factor Analysis of the National Center on Health, Physical Activity and Disability Wellness Assessment Tool
: The NWA physical wellness domain did not demonstrate strong convergent validity, as mental and emotional/spiritual wellness domains did. All domains showed strong divergent validity, and CFA showed evidence supporting a three-factor model. Future efforts will emphasize refining and reevaluating the physical wellness domain until it achieves strong psychometric properties.
