Hi, I am using a second order construct in my framework, and it has 4 dimensions, each dimension has 3 reflective indicators. When I try to model the framework in PLS, I was told the model is invalid, as there is no indicators for the second order construct itself. May I know how to solve this?
Thanks!

Thank you :)

Add second order constructs as a requested feature?
hi,
I've read the re-use of indicators threat for the second-order contructs and applied the method, but would it be possible to add a "latent unmeasured construct" as a feature of PLS or is this contraty to PLS principles?
thanks,
jo
