Comparing path coefficients across models

Post by cds »

Hello everybody,

due to the research design, I calculated two pls models.
In one model, an endogenous latent variable (single item measured "number of purchases") included all purchases.
The second model only included the number of purchases linked to a certain criteria.

I would now like to compare the different path coefficients across these two models. I wonder which test would be approriate for this situation since it is not a strict two group analysis.

Can you point out any applicable testing scheme and/or literature?

Thanks for any comments.
