second order reflective-reflective model for PLS-SEM
Posted: Thu Apr 11, 2019 9:22 am
Dear all,
I have a question about my model testing. I have a second order reflective-reflective model in my paper and my sample very small (less than 200) so I decided to use PLS. However, when I tell my supervisor she disagrees with that because she said she has not seen any article or paper use PLS to test a second order reflective-reflective model before and PLS is not suitable for mature theory testing.
So I really want to know can I use this, any drawback with it and are there any paper can support it?
Thank you for all your helping.
Best Regards,
Angel
