Hi, I face multicollinearity issue with my 2nd order formative construct. after reading some forum tracks, i used the 2 step approach. I used the original IVs with the original items and used the Latent Variables (results in reports) generated via running the PLS Algorithm for the DV (2nd order cons...

Hi, I have the similar issue on the multicollinearity for my Formative Dependent Variable which is 2nd order construct. Just to double confirm, i need to use the original indicators for the other constructs/variables and just use the LV from executing the PLS algorithm for the 2nd order DV/construct...

Hi,

Great. My model works now. Just to double confirm, the reliability and validity test should be done before designing the 2-stage approach to test path coefficient right?

Thank you.

Hi, I have done bootstrapping on my research model. I have 3 independent variables, 2 mediators, 2nd order construct DV measured by 6 formative 1st order. The others are reflective. All the paths showing t-value, except for the path from both mediators to my 2nd order DV is showing 0.0000. What does...

Hi, For my model, the CR and AVE has been established. However, for discriminant validity test using the Fornell Larcker criterion gives below results: A B C D E F A 0.781 B 0.485 0.757 C 0.692 0.53 0.738 D 0.656 0.454 0.792 0.714 E 0.546 0.63 0.609 0.493 0.716 F 0.662 0.56 0.67 0.567 0.542 0.749 C ...
