Significance of LV correlations

Post by donna.davis@ttu.edu »

Hello all...

I can't seem to find the t-values for the LV correlations anywhere in the output. If they are not relevant for PLS, why is that the case?

Thanks!

Hi

If one needs the t-values, one option would be to export the LV scores into SPSS and run correlations to get the t-stats.

Thanks

t values for LV correlations

Post by viswadatta »

PLS is not a parametric method, so no t-values. You need to run a bootstrap or a jack knife and check the t-values for the inter LV arrows to judge the significance of the relationship
