Pathways analyses Separate path analyses (for men and women) were obtained through the next procedure: (a) firstly a complete path-diagram structure with all the variables considered in the correlational analysis (Table 2 ) was tested; (b) next, all non-significant coefficients were deleted to achieve a more parsimonious model; (c) fitting indexes for the finalistic model containing only significant coefficients ( p < 0.05) or quasi-significant coefficients ( p < 0.10) were obtained; and (d) the final model coincided with the finalistic model in the case of adequate goodness-of-fit, while a reviewed model was tested in the case of non adequate fitting.
