IPMA for model having Second-order construct

Post by lilyv »

Hello everyone,

I have a question about running IPMA for my model.

My theoretical model is composed of 3 variables (cf. attached image) : one second-order construct (IV) with 3 first order (its dimensions) (reflective-reflective construct) and 2 other reflective constructs (DV1 and DV2). I intend to see which dimensions have high performance for predicting the target construct (DV2) by running IPMA. In Hair et al. (2018) Advanced issues in PLS-SEM, the instruction is mentionned for model of first-order construct where all predictors have a same scale.

With my model having 2nd order construct, should I use 2-stage approach to transform model then run IPMA for new model ? In this case, the construct IV is reflected by 3 manifest constructs (I use Latent variable scores for 3 dimensions), but these variables (dimensions) don't have the same range (min,max) because I use standardize score.

Could anyone advise me how to run IPMA for model having 2nd order construct ?

Thank you very much !

You have two options when you want to use the IPMA for a second-order construct.

1) You use the repeated-indicator approach. That should work just fine.

2) You could use the disjoint two-stage approach and take the necessary latent variable scores as unstandardized LV scores from an IPMA analysis on the first stage model.

Following the discussion here, how can we find the IPMA results for the Low order constructs on IV?
