Abstract

The syntax of plssem reflects the measurement and structural part of a PLS-SEM model, and accordingly requires the user to specify both of these parts simultaneously. Since a full PLS-SEM model would include a structural model, i.e., the relationship between latent variables (LV), one needs to have at least two latent variables specified in the measurement part. Each latent variable will be defined by a block of indicators (say, indblock). For example, if we have two latent variables in our PLS-SEM model, the plssem syntax requires to specify the measurement part by typing (LV1 > indblock1) (LV2 > indblock2) following the command name. Note that we can specify as many LVs as it is needed in the model.
