Dear professors and researchers,

From the development of the literature as far as I know about research publications using PLS, there are a number of things I want to ask:
1. How to process data for a higher-order theoretical framework in which there are constructs with reflective and formative forms using CCA?
2. Is it possible to process and analyze a theoretical framework by combining CCA, robustness check and NCA? Are there any literature sources that can be used as a reference?

Thank you.
