Hierarchical Model and VIF

Post by TaH »

Hi!

I have a short question regarding the VIF values of hierarchical models. I use the reflective-formative model with three FOCs which from one formative HOC. Using the repeated indicator approach I estimated the model and follow now the reporting guidelines in Becker et al. (2012). I want to assess the appropriateness of the second order construct (weights, significance of weights and multicollinearity). My question addresses the issue of multicollinearity. Can I see that from the table "inner VIF values" in the SmartPLS output?

Thanks for your answer!

Hello everybody,
Please from where can we get the Weights of the first-order constructs on the second-order constructs table to confirme the use of HCM (Reflextive-Formative)?
And what if we have the weight of one of the FOCs on its SOC <0.1 what should we do in this case?
Thank you very much.
