Regarding the fit index analysis of Shen's fatalism scale, it was determined that the ratio of chi-square statistics to degrees of freedom was (χ2 / df) 2.79 (χ2 = 465.09 df= 167), the root mean square error of approximation (RMSEA) was 0.07, the Tucker-Lewis index (TLI) value was 0.91 and the comparative fit index (CFI) value was 0.92.
