Should validate HOC or not ?
Posted: Thu Apr 04, 2019 5:32 pm
Hello everyone,
I aim to test effect of each dimension of Service Quality (SQ) to Satisfaction. In the literature, SQ has 7 dimensions (SQ is reflective-reflective higher-order constructs, 7 dimensions are its LOCs). Through my qualitative research, I add 2 more as new dimensions of SQ.
I conducted EFA and CFA via SmartPLS for all 9 dimensions and all thresholds are satisfied.
My question as follow : Have I to assess the validity and relialibity of HOC measurement model (SQ) ? For clearly, main objectif of my research is to test effect of each dimension to Satisfaction (not SQ (HOC) to satisfaction). Is it necessary to assess HOC measurement ? because I don't test effect of SQ to Satisfaction, but its dimensions (9 dimensions).
I hope you can get me more clear and let me know some references talking about the same model like mine.
Many thanks in advance.
