composite reliability discrepancy

Post by carole »

Hello,
I discover smartpls 3 while I usually run PLS-PM with xlstat-PLSPM. I'm confused about the composite reliability which are differents for the same model in this two softwares. So, does smartpls use a particular composite reliability (rho-A) while in xlstat, it's the dillon-Goldstein Rho (DG rho)?
best regards and thanks a lot for your help.

problem solved. there is a Rho-A and a composite index in smartpls. composite reliability and DG rho were similar between the two soft.

Yes, the dillon-Goldstein Rho (DG rho) is the composite relibaility, while rho_A is the Henseler and Dijkstra Rho, which is also used in PLSc to correct for the attenuation of correlations.
