Covariance

Interpretation

Class-invariant parameterization (CIP)

Equal

Zero

The HI, VI, HC and HI profile indicators’ variances occur in the same manner across the cultural types of gamers revealed, whilst they don’t covary between the profiles.

Class-varying diagonal parameterization (CVDP)

Varying

Zero

The HI, VI, HC and HI profile indicators’ variances occur differently across the cultural types of gamers revealed, whilst they don’t covary between the profiles.

Class-invariant unrestricted parameterization (CIUP)

Equal

Equal

The HI, VI, HC and HI profile indicators’ variances occur in the same manner across the cultural types of gamers revealed, whilst they also covary similarly between the profiles.
