smartPLS vs. SPSS standardization

Post by jrath »

Dear smartPLS Users,

when I import the original data and choose "mean 0, variance 1" in the PLS algorithm the results differ compared to importing standardized data from SPSS and choosing "original value" in the PLS algorithm.

In my case the first procedure results in higher path coefficients.

Do you know why???

Do you have a recommendation which procedure to use????

Thanks very much in advance!!!
