Convergent validity of 2nd order formative construct

Post by Man18 »

Hi,
I have 2 exogenous formative 2nd order construct and the model is type II (formative-reflective) + 1 endogenous 2nd order relective-reflective
my question is about convergent validity (redudancy analysis) for formative 2nd order construct : could we consider the proof of convergent validity of 1st order LV is sufficient to prove the convergent validity of the corresponding second order formative LV?
Any advice will be appreciable
Thank you in advance
