I was reading Weiber/Mühlhaus (2010) "Strukturgleichungsmodellierung" and was wondering if I can get the Q square just by opening Quality Criteria - Owerview in the report and than in the column "Redundancy" (see page 263). Is this my Q square? Do I only need the blindfolding when I want to get the q squares?
Thank you very much!

Hey Maike,
The book by Weiber and Mühlhaus (2010) have not much information for the PLS part. It helps a little bit for introducing in the topic but for further analysis you should work with journal papers. In the German working paper “Eine Anwenderorientierte Einführung in PLS” (http://www.ibl-unihh.de/ap21_Stand_Juni2010.pdf) you can also find some important hints on page 35 - 36 for Q^2. In footnote 231 you can also find an important note which value you should use in the SmartPLS output.
Greetings,
Christian

This statement by Weiber and Mühlhaus is right. But you have to know which value to take in the output. There is also a small bug in SmartPLS in the calculation which you have to pay attention. Please check following post for that: http://smartpls.de/forum/viewtopic.php? ... redundancy
