Scale Development with PLS

Hi Together, I am fairly inexperienced if it comes to PLS.
I am interested in the possibility of using PLS for a scale development paper and I was looking for literature on that but I couldn't find much.
Did you try PLS for scale develoment, or do you know a paper where it has been used?

Hi,

Check three references below for development scale using PLS-SEM and CB-SEM:

Compeau, D. R., and Higgins, C. A, "Computer Self-Efficacy: Development of a Measure and Initial Test," MIS Quarterly (19:2) 1995b, pp.189-211.

Hinkin, T.R. 1998. "A Brief Tutorial on the Development of Measures for Use in Survey Questionnaires," Organizational Research Method (1:1), pp. 104-121.

Raykov, T. 2012. "Scale Construction and Development Using Structural Equation Modeling,” In R. Hoyle (Ed.), Handbook of Structural Equation Modeling, Guilford Press.

Best Regards,
Hengky

I checked out these references but could not find a solution. Can you give me some more references on this PLS scale development?

Hi,

Check Bagozzi and MacKenzie et al. In MISQ 2011. And also check another books about scale development OK.
