HOC (2nd order-repeated indicators)

Post by Stef »

Hello all,
I have a question concerning a HOC. In my model, I have a second-order-construct in a reflective-reflective mode and using the repeated indicators approach. Is it possible and neccessary (in smartPLS) to run and report a second-order confirmation factory analysis to show the fit of the structure of the second-order-construct? If yes, how may I do it? If no, are there other procedures I should do and report to show the fit of the model?

Thank you very much for your help!
