137 people are less likely to structural equation modelling. Because a lot of estimates will be made when the analysis is carried out. That's why more people need to collect data. Also, depending on the number of items on the scales you are using, you can count on the necessary sample to increase.
Hi! A common rule of thumb is to have at least 10 individuals for each item.
Sample size mostly depends on number of items. Multiply the items five times for example if 10 items are there then the minimum sample should be 50 i.e (10*5)
In fact, the criterion of 5 or 10 times the number of items may not be appropriate for every situation. It is the most accurate road power test to determine the number of required samples.
