This video discusses moderation effects in SmartPLS with focus on the continuous variable after discussing the categorical variable in the prior video. The video starts introducing continuous variables and differentiating them from categorical variables. After providing some literature background, t...

This video provides detailed literature background and SmartPLS application in regards to Categorical moderation effects. It starts with some literature background information before moving to SmartPLS SEM application. Bootstrapping function is run to get the path coefficients and thus, check for mo...

Mediation effects and mediator variables in SmartPLS. This video provides you adequate information and knowledge about mediation effects and mediator variables in SmartPLS. The video provides background knowledge about mediation in smartPLS, single and multiple mediation, direct and indirect effects...

#Higherordermodels, ,#PLShighermodels, #SecondordermodelsPLS You may think it gets complex to adopt a higher order model for a PhD thesis. In SmartPLS, higher order model may be easy to work with when you have the supporting theory and conceptual models. This video as a continuation of video #19 pro...

#PLS higher order models #second order constructs This video provides detailed information and know-how about higher order models in SmartPLS. The lectures starts by defining higher order models and why we resort to such models when dealing with higher level of construct abstractions. Higher order m...

This video introduces PhD and Master students to structural equation modeling. SEM is one statistical technique that uses a combination of other statistical techniques to study complex relationships among abstract/latent constructs.

Vid#3 introduces students and researchers to data collection methods. It may provide effective routes to data collection. Also, the video discusses the vitality of addressing missing data before importing into SmartPLS for analysis. Missing data using the EM (expectation maximization method) may be ...

The most efficient way to collect data for quantitative analysis. How to use qualtrics as an online survey platform to develop your questionnaire and collect data for addressing research questions. This video provides a good reference or a guiding lecture for PhD and Master students to collect data ...

This vidoe #8 in our SMARTPLS video series discusses the Common Method Variance and what actions researchers can take to avoid or mitigate the impact of CMV. This video discusses the preventive/procedural remedies for CMV. #CMV, #commonmethodvariance, #Proceduralremedies, #Preventiveremedies, DataBi...

We may have to be cautious when reporting model fit analysis with SmartPLS. However, yet, the reporting is needed to satisfy some reviewers and examiners. Literature may be yet unclear and vague about model fit analysis in variance based structural equation modeling software. With SmartPLS, there ar...

This video focuses on assessing and validating formative indicators in formative measurement models using smartPLS. This video presents a detailed explanation about validating formative indicators in formative measurement models for SmartPLS structural equation modeling. It starts with an introducti...

This video number 16 discusses in details step #5 in the structural model assessment procedures. It addresses Qsquared calculations or the cross validated redundancy. In details, it explains what it means and how it can be calculated using SmartPLS blindfolding function. Q2: uses omitted data set to...
