Hello everyone,

1. Which stage should we use for assessing Q2 (predictive relevance) in two stage approach?
2. Why the results in each stage are different?
3. And since "The blindfolding procedure is usually applied to endogenous constructs that have a reflective measurement model specification as well as to endogenous single-item constructs." (Hair et al. 2017), can we report Q2 results for all (formative and reflective) constructs in the second stage because of having single items (latent variable scores as indicators)?

Thanks

I have the exact same question, I don't know for r square and Q square, which results should I be reporting? The ones with all the indicators or the second ones having only the latent variables?

I would be grateful if some one help out.

Thanks Shamel, in this case do I need to go to the second step? In other words, can I keep the first order constructs (not indicators) and report the results? Stock Market Courses Hubspot agency
