The authors propose a CTA-PLS assessment routine for measurement models. This routine applies confirmatory tetrad analysis (CTA) in a manner which is consistentwith partial least squares (PLS) pathmodeling assumptions. The conceptualization employs a bootstrapping procedure to accomplish an...

Applications of the partial least squares (PLS) path modeling approach — which have gained increasing dissemination in business research — usually build on the assumption that the data stem from a single population. However, in empirical applications, this assumption of homogeneity is...

When applying the partial least squares structural equation modeling (PLSSEM) method, the assumption that the data stem from a single homogeneous population is often unrealistic. For the full set of data, unobserved heterogeneity in the PLS path model estimates may result in misleading...

Purpose – Revisiting Fornell et al.’s (1996) seminal study, this chapter looks at the evidence for observed and unobserved heterogeneity within data underlying the American customer satisfaction index (ACSI) model. Examining data for two specific industries (utilities and hotels) reveals...

Alongside structural equation modeling (SEM), the complementary technique of partial least squares (PLS) path modeling helps researchers understand relations among sets of observed variables. Like SEM, PLS began with an assumption of homogeneity — one population and one model — but has...
