The phrase "adjusted goodness" is correct and usable in written English.
It can be used in contexts related to statistics, model evaluation, or any situation where a measure of goodness has been modified or refined.
Example: "The adjusted goodness of fit indicates how well the model explains the variability of the data after accounting for certain factors."
Alternatives: "modified goodness" or "refined goodness".
The model fit was moderate to good (standardised root mean square residual=0.08, 0.12; adjusted goodness of fit=0.97/0.91) in the before and after conditions, respectively.
adjusted goodness of fit index.
SEM model fit was evaluated with the use of goodness of fit indices (e.g., adjusted goodness of fit index [AGFI], normed fit index [NFI], and root mean square error of approximation [RMSEA]) (Arbuckle 2013; Arbuckle 2006).
The hypothesised five-factor model appeared to fit the data in both samples (adjusted goodness of fit; AGFI: 0.97 and 0.98).
df = degrees of freedom, AGFI = Adjusted Goodness of Fit Index, SRMR = Standardized Root Mean Residual, CFI = Comparative Fit Index, RMSEA = Root Mean Square Error of Approximation, CL90 = 90% Confidence Limits.
52 Given controversy surrounding their use, χ values are provided and discussed only in the paper's online supplementary appendix along with other fit indices (goodness-of-fit index, adjusted goodness of fit and χ to df ratio).
The adjusted goodness-of-fit statistic (AGFI): Similar to GFI, values higher than 0.9 indicate a good fit model.
χ2 = chi-squared, df degrees of freedom, GFI goodness-of-fit index, AGFI adjusted goodness-of-fit index, CFI comparative fit index, RMSEA root-mean-square error of approximation, 90 % CI 90%% Confidence Interval.
The goodness-of-fit of the candidate models to the data was evaluated using the adjusted goodness-of-fit statistic provided by the sem function.
†The adjusted goodness-of-fit results by specifying the maximum predicted utility score to be 1.
AGFI: Adjusted Goodness-of-Fit Index, should be close to 1. CFI: Comparative Fit Index, should be close to 1. NFI: Normed Fit Index, should exceed 0.90.
