Bootstrapping - Indirect/Direct Effects Reports Consistency

Post by donnadba »

My model consists of reflective measures. For the exogenous measure and one of the latent variables, the Total Effects report indicates acceptance of the null hypothesis at the 1% level, but the Path Coefficient report indicates Rejection. I thought there would be consistency with the 2 reports.

Also, please verify if correct procedure is to put sample equal to number of valid observations in data set. Thanks.
