Consistent PLS (PLSc) compatible with PLS-POS?

Post by alonsodossantos »

Hello everyone.
Please, let me expose some doubts about using PLSc and PLS-POS. All my model are reflective. So, editor suggest me use PLSc. In the research, I use PLS-POS to segment the sample. But I think PLS-POS is not ready to use PLSc at the moment in SmartPLS. So my dude is: Is it convenient to use PLSc with PLS-POS? I think the results are difficult to compare. I think I could not use two different techniques. And I have not idea about how to use PLS-POS outside SmartPLS. I am not statistics formation at that level.

Please, I need your help. What do you think about the problem? Do you think is it a good motive to use "normal" PLS? How do you justified it?

Thank you very much in advance.
