Oh yes, you are right, just add another quadratic term to Y!
Thank you !

Mediating effect of a nonlinear relationship
Dear PLS developers, Sometimes the curvilinear relationship is mediated by a third variable, like X^2 -->Mediator-->Y. To test the direct effect from the quadratic term X^2 to Y, one has to establish an arrow from X^2 to Y, which is however currently not feasible in SmartPLS. Is it possible to integ...

Re: direction of arrows in the measurement model
Ah! In nature, the mode rather than model specification, determines loadings, weights and path coefficients. Thank you very much for the detailed explanation!

direction of arrows in the measurement model
Hi PLS users, Since the direction of arrows in the measurement model does not indicate whether a factor or composite model is estimated, but Mode A/B instead (Henseler et al. 2016, Sarstedt et al. 2016), 1. why does not the direction of arrows change when I set indicator weighting to a specific Mode...

lanten variable score partially reported
Hi all,
I came across sth weird. In the sample there are 453 cases, but when I had a look at the latent variable score (unstandardized), there were only 256 cases reported, where are the score of the other cases?
Thank you!

effect size
Hi all, I want to calculate effect size f² for c, and my structural model is like: a-->c-->d b-->c-->d b-->d a-->d if I calculate f² for c, i.e. I have to get the value of R² when c is included and excluded respectively, should I delete the whole LV c out of the model, or just delete the path from c...

how to choose construct in blindfolding
Hi all
I think it is only meaningful to calculate the Q square of exogenous variables which are predictors as well. Why in the construct option of blindfolding, the endogenous variables are also available? What does it mean if I choose any of the construct to calculate the Q square?
Thank you!

Blindfolding: a contradiction
Hi all, I am baffled about the cv communality and cv redundancy, and checked the relevant discussions in the forum, below is the findings: " two latent exogenous variables (LV1 and LV2) and one latent endogenous variable (LV3): for the cv-redundancy of LV3, if you check only the specific endoge...

If LV is measured by ordinal scale
Hi, all
if the dependent LV is simply measured by an ordinal scale, (such as 1=stong, 2=weak, 3= non), is it possible to test it in SmartPLS, and how? Thank you!
