Sample Research Articles that used SmartPLS

Can you please provide some research articles that used SmartPLS?
Any research from different areas of specialization will do.
I will just use them as guide on how to present PLS-SEM results.
Thank you.

Hierarchical Factor Model in SmartPLS: Confusing!

Dear All, I tried to study how SmartPLS will handle a Hierarchical Factor Model. For our example, let me use the model posted by liaw wei, which link is shown below. As shown, the 15 items are loaded already to the corresponding first-level 4 LVs. My question is in the second-level latent, the one i...

Can we do Latent Growth Curve Analysis with two wave data?

There are two groups (experimental and control groups), each with n=100. Subjects are randomly assigned to experimental and control group. Pre-test was administered to each group, while posttest (same questionnaire used in the pretest) was administered after the intervention after several months. Th...

Can SmartPLS do Hierarchical Factor Analysis?

Can SmartPLS do Hierarchical Factor Analysis? I want to do confirmatory factor analysis for an instrument specified as 2-level factor model similar to Figure 2 of this paper:

For a construct with only one item, the factor loading is fixed to 1. Thus, T value is zero.

Bido,

Thank you for your reply.

Do you have references on "scale development and validation" that use SmartPLS.

Hello!

May I know why having two reflective indicators is a problem when analysing data?

Thank you.

Some of your constructs have AVE of less than .5. The AVE will be improved if the indicator reliability (or outer loading) is .7 or higher. Just look at the outer loading for each item- it should be .7 or higher.
