Dear professors and professionals
I know that SmartPLS 3.0 provides MGA functions. And it is very easy and usaufull.
The procedure of analysis using SmartPLS requires reliability test and validity test. Therefore we should provide result of reliability test and validity test.
There is a research model
Money -----------------------> Happy
|
|
Gender
Money is exogenous latent variable
Happy is endogenous latent variable
Gender is moderation variable
In this case, should I provide reliability & validity test result for full sample and each male and female sample? Or just providing full sample result is good for it?
The most of research papers I read provide not reliability & validity test result for sub sample but reliability & validity test result for full sample .
In conclusion, I would like to know that when I run the MGA, it is necessary reliability & validity test for sub sample??
Thanks

Re: Reliability and Validity for Multi Group Analysis
Given that you have measurement invariance it is okay to just report the reliability and validity criteria for the combined sample.

Thank you very much professor jmbecker!!
And,,, how can I know that whether my research model has measurement invariance or not ??

Have a look at the following references:

Schlägel, C. and M. Sarstedt (2016). Assessing the measurement invariance of the four-dimensional cultural intelligence scale across countries: A composite model approach, European Management Journal, 34(6), 633–649.
SmartPLS 3 provides the nessesary information within the permutation approach.
