Over the past two decades, many indices for evaluating the fit of structural equation models have been developed. The existence of many indices, however, causes confusion among researchers about which indices to use to evaluate their models and about which indices to report. In the present study, two criteria for selecting appropriate indices were proposed and several popular indices were evaluated in terms of the criteria. Based on the evaluation, NNFI, CFI, and RMSEA were recommended. Finally, the advantages and disadvatages of RMSEA were discussed in detail because this index has only recently been recognized as one of the most informative indices and thus it is not widely known and used.
