The SmartPLS default report provides the outer loadings and t values. 4.If any indicator weights are not statistically significant, then we examine the size and significance of the indicator loadings.
Results for our Corporate Reputation example indicate that all formative indicators are significant except csor_2, csor_4, qual_2, and qual_4. This is done with the bootstrapping option of SmartPLS. 3.The third step is to examine the statistical significance of the outer weights (not the loadings). SPSS or some other software must be used. 2.The next step is to examine the collinearity of the indicators. A path coefficient above the threshold of 0.80 provides support for convergent validity of the formative construct. The construct is modeled as the independent variable and the global measure is the dependent variable. That is achieved by correlating each formative construct with a global measure for that construct.
Indicators for SEM Model Exogenous Constructs – Assessing Content Validity –Īssessing Formative Constructs and Indicators Evaluating formative constructs and indicators involves the following: 1.First examine convergent validity using redundancy analysis. Is my conclusion right? Please help me again.Using the SmartPLS Software Assessment of Measurement Models Since the rule of thumb of discriminant validity is Square root AVE more than LVC or correlation between latent variable so I think it’s difficult to make discriminant validity establish in second order. The result shows managerial accountability has 0.71 AVE (0.84 Square root AVE) which lower than LVC between managerial accountability to information (0.87), to personal value (0.92) and to law enforcement (0.95). If I have three latent variable in my first order construct and a latent variable in my second order construct and use reflective-formative type and put my all observed variables (indicators) at first order to second order construct then I found my LVC (Latent Variable Correlation) for latent variable at second order having more value than my AVE Square Root.Įxample, I have 203 respondents who replies and fully answer my questionnaire and my latent variable at my second order is “Managerial Accountability” while three other construct at first order are “Information”, “Personal Value”, and “Law Enforcement”.
