Hi All,

When using G*Power to calculate sample size, power and/or effect, what Test Family and Statistical Test should be selected?

Many thanks.

Check the example in the PLS-SEM book:

Hi,

New formula for compute sample size in PLS N > ( 2.48 / Abs(bm) ) ^ 2
Where Abs(bm) is the absolute value of the path coefficient with the minimum expected magnitude in the model.

it all comes back to the variability of your population as well your level of complexity in your model. Small effects might require more power to reveal
