First, the correct χ2 value for our alternative model 2 in Table 3 (page 751) should be 1279.18. Hence, the corrected Table 3 reads: Table 3. Structural models Model χ2 df χ2/df RMSEA CFI IFI Hypothesized model 4038.29 1841 2.19 0.06 0.76 0.77 Alternative model 1: No controls model 807.77 476 1.70 0.05 0.96 0.96 Alternative model 2: Only significant controls 1279.18 695 1.84 0.05 0.92 0.92 N = 339; RMSEA = root mean square error of approximation; CFI = comparative fit index; IFI = incremental fit index. Consequently, the results of the χ2 difference tests reported on page 749 in the section “Structural model” in the paragraph “Alternative model testing” also need correcting. Thus, the respective corrected paragraph on page 749 reads as follows: “We conducted χ2 difference tests for all models. The model with no control variables (Δ χ2 = 3230.52, Δ df = 1365, p < 0.01) and the model including only significant controls (Δ χ2 = 2759.11, Δ df = 1146, p < .01) both had a significantly better fit than the hypothesized model with all control variables.” Second, on page 749 in the section “Structural model” in the paragraph “Alternative model testing”, the model with significant controls was incorrectly reported as showing a better fit than the model without controls. However, the model without controls had the better fit. The reasoning for using the model including only significant controls to test the hypotheses lies in the theoretical relevance of the controls. Thus, the respective corrected paragraph on page 749 reads as follows: “The significant χ2 difference test contrasting the models without controls and with significant controls showed that the model without controls had the better fit (Δ χ2 = 471.41, Δ df = 219, p < 0.01). Nevertheless, the model including only significant controls (χ2 = 1279.18, df = 695, RMSEA = 0.05, CFI = 0.92, IFI = 0.92) was used to test the hypotheses due to the strong theoretical rational for assuming a relationship between the included controls and the study's variables (Bernerth and Aguinis, 2016) and since the model had an adequate fit. Following the recommendations of Becker et al. (2016), we also tested the model without controls as a robustness check, which showed no changes in the pattern and significance levels of the results”. To allow for maximum transparency, we would be willing to provide the raw data and our calculations to whomever requests them. The authors would like to apologize for the errors.
