Hello..

im quite new using this smartPLS

so anyone can help me solve this matter..

1)my IV have 6..inside there have 5 to 6 items..so due to negative loading, i have to rid of my item into only 2 item for each IV (is it ok?)

2)what shud i do next..i mean to relate my hypotheses either significant or not..because my supervisor want me to run using SEM method rather than using SPSS..

Anyone can assist me..really appreciate :)

Hi,

You might want to take a look to this quite new book, it´s a hands-on book, it´s based on smartPLS2 but if you work with smartPLS3 you can also get your goal. It´s a great book, it´s written step by step what it should be done, from the very beginning untill the end:

"A primer on Partial Least Squares Structural Equation Modelling (PLS-SEM)" (Hair et al., 2014)
