I have recently started using PLS and wants to check the significance of my path coefficients. I did bootstrapping. I have total 200 respondents data set on 5 variables each measured by 3 manifest variables(items).
3 variables have reflective items and 2 have formative items.
I dont know what to put in "Case" under bootstrap settings. Under sample i think i can put 500 or even more.
'
what does the "No sign changes" , "construct level changes" and "individual level changes" mean and what should be selected under this sign change dropdown box
Please help me to clear this doubt.
Thanks
Regards
Ruchi

Hi,
Using the search function...
Bootstrap in general:
viewtopic.php?t=1337&highlight=bootstrap
viewtopic.php?t=1396&highlight=bootstrap
Difference between Bootstrap and Jacknife
viewtopic.php?t=1062&highlight=bootstrap
Sign change:
No sign changes --> not recommended
Individual changes --> recommended by Henseler, Ringle, Sinkovics (2009, p.307)
Construct level changes --> recommended by Tenenhaus et al. (2005, p.177)
http://php.portals.mbs.ac.uk/Portals/49 ... cs-PLS.pdf
http://www.stat.uni-muenchen.de/institu ... deling.pdf
Cases = N in your dataset --> see:
viewtopic.php?t=846&highlight=bootstrap
Samples = number of resamples
viewtopic.php?t=813&highlight=bootstrap
Running bootstrap in SmartPLS
viewtopic.php?t=838&highlight=bootstrap
Degree of freedom to compute p-values:
viewtopic.php?t=1317&highlight=bootstrap

bootstrap case
Thanks a lot
It is helping me in clearing doubts.
But just a small query. If I have 149 respondents dataset and in Bootstrap under "cases" if i give 149 cases with 1000 samples , then i get different values.
If i give "300 cases" in bootstrap with "1000 samples" for my original dataset of 149 respondents i get different results. In this case i am getting many of my variables significant as compared to when i entered 149 cases.
Why is it so?
Thanks

Hi,
From one bootstrap to another we will have different results because the resamples are random with replacement.
With more resamples the results (t values) will be more stable.
Using more cases than the original data set, we will have smaller standard deviation and bigger t-values, for this reason, the correct procedure is to use case = sample size (rows in the data set).

Bido

Hi Bido,
In bootstrapping, the sample is selected by random? However, will this mean that if I should choose 149 cases in my resample, which is the same number of cases in my dataset, some of the 149 will be in the resample twice, or more?
Otherwise I cant see why the, if we choose only 149 cases for each resample, we wouldnt get the result each time.

Hi,
yes, we will have the same case more than once in the resample.
See an example: http://bcs.whfreeman.com/ips5e/content/ ... oore14.pdf

Contribution to r^2
Hi professor,
How can I calculate the LV contribution to the overall r^2?

Hi Bido,
Thank you very much for the fast reply. I know how 3 different follow-up questions :)
Do you have a reference to a research paper or similar that explains the different weighting schemes in smartPLS? (factor, path, centroid)
Do you know if there is any advantage in "cleaning" your LV in spss before entering them into smartpls?
When cleaning the LV, do you have knowledge about which method is most compatible with PLS. Meaning, cleaning the LV in spss by looking at cronbach alpha, or cleaning the LV's in smartpls by looking and t-test results?
Thank you very much, your replies are very much appreciated!

Hi,
1) See:
TENENHAUS, M.; ESPOSITO VINZI, V.; CHATELIN, Y.-M.; LAURO, C. PLS path modeling. Computational Statistics & Data Analysis, v. 48, n. 1, p. 159-205, 2005.
https://studies2.hec.fr/jahia/webdav/si ... S_PM_5.pdf
2) Usually the cleaning (adjusting of the measurement model to the data = exploratory approach) is faster in the SmartPLS than in SPSS.
If you think that the indicators could measure more than one LV, a principal component analysis in the SPSS could help.
3) Principal component analysis.
See:
CHIN, W. W. Partial least squares is to LISREL as principal components analysis is to common factor analysis. Technology Studies, v. 2, n. 2, p. 315–319, 1995.

Best regards,
Bido

Hi Bido,
I have a LV containing 5 manifest variables, when doing a principal component factor analysis in spss, all variables load with more than 0,5. Hence I am concluding that no variables needs to be excluded. However, when entering the model in smarpls, the t-values for 2 of the 5 manifest variables, are not significant.
Which approach would you consider most reliable?
