How do we check inter-item correlation? I have reflective items for the contruct.
Thank you.

Hi,

Ran PLS Algorithm and open the result correlations.

Sorry, did not follow the instructions. I ran PLS and generated the default report. Please confirm which tab captures the inter-item correlation values.

Thank you

Hello.

I think you can alternatively check as follows:

Run PLS Algorithm - Run Default Report, under the PLS, find Overview under Quality Criteria, and check Composite Reliability column and Cronbach's alpha(only shown as reflectively measured constructs) .

I have thought about this point, what i have just found is that i could not get inter-item correlation directly using Smartpls software unlike SPSS, EXCEL etc,.

Using Smartpls to check reliability of reflectively measured constructs, what i know until now is that it is suitable to apply composite reliability as means of internal consistency reliability than Cronbach's alpha(as conservative measures).

Please let me know if anyone has other opinions and advice.

Thank you in advance.

Hi,

Inter-item correlations must be computed in SPSS, R, etc.

SmartPLS just show us the LV correlations matrix.
