Hi,
I have a question about how to interpret the t-value from the bootstrap.
Is that t-value used to test the path significance or to assess precision of the PLS estimates?
Kind regards
Dora

t-value in bootstrap
t-value is used to decide the significance of paths in a bootstrap and jack knife. A value greater than 2 signifies a significant path. The generic form of the hypothesis is
H0: The path coefficient is not significant
If t-value is greater than 2, then assuming 5% level of significance, the t-value will lie in the rejection region, meaning we reject H0. This implies that the path is significant.
