Fig. 2

Diagram of the structural equation model. The path coefficients shown above each single-headed arrow are standardized partial regression coefficients, indicating to what extent a change of the variable at the tail of the arrow is transmitted to the variable at the head of the arrow (with all other variables indicated in the diagram held constant). The coefficients shown above double-headed arrows are covariance coefficients. Residual arrows were omitted. All path coefficients were statistically significant (p < 0.001). *Modelled using the AUCs, accounting for the magnitude and the duration of the parameter variation.
