Re: Second order construct

In such a case you do not want to use second-order constructs. You want to look into the moderation topic. There you create interaction effects, that sound more like what you want to study. I have used a second-order construct as a composite of A and B to evaluate the synergistic effect of A and B ...

I have followed some studies that use second-order construct to operationalize the complementarity effect, bu...

Second order construct

Hey,

I have used a second-order construct as a composite of A and B to evaluate the synergistic effect of A and B on C. Could you please suggest bibliographic references that theoretically justify the usefulness of a second-order construct for a synergistic effect between two variables.

Thanks.

Third Order construct

Hey, Please, I need your help. What are the adequate steps to establish the third order construct (M) bellow in the picture? If I use the two-stage approach, are the steps bellow correct : 1- use the repeated indicators in second (A, B) and third (M) order constructs simultaneously. 2- save the late...

Second ordre construct

Hey, I have a model with a Formative second-order construct formed by two LCs, the first is reflective while the second is formative. My questions are : 1) Can a formative second-order construct be established with a reflective and formative LCs? If Yes : 2) Should use repeated or two-stage approach...
