Inquiry about Moderation Results

Hi, I am using SmartPLS for path analysis. In my model, the direct relationship between IGF with EO is significant (See Figure 1). When I make an interaction term and moderate ISI between IGF and EO, IGF path turns insignificant and interaction term comes out to be significant (See Figure 2). Does t...

Reflective-Formative Validity

I have developed reflective-formative construct. I have to check its validity. Initially, at first order, all the weights, factor loadings, AVE are appropriate. When I calculate the second-order by using the latent score and place the latent constructs on second-order formative. They come out to be ...

Re: Sample size

Try increasing your sample a little but. Minimum sample size can be calculated by the 10 x number of arrowheads pointing towards the endogenous construct. If you have three arrowheads, the minimum sample size is 30.

Which Moderation Should I Use?

Hi, (Hair et al, 2016) suggests that if the exogenous constructs or/and moderators are formative, use two-stage moderation. I have two exogenous reflective-formative constructs and one exogenous reflective construct. My endogenous construct is also reflective formative. I have a moderator which is r...

In reflective-formative model, PLS should be applied or PLSc?

In my research, my DV is a higher order construct with first order reflective and second-order formative. According to the (Hair Jr, Hult, Ringle, & Sarstedt, 2016) , I have developed the model, generated a latent score using PLS (because of the formative second order), rearranged the model with...
