Partial least squares structural equation modeling-based discrete choice modeling: an illustration in modeling retailer choice

Nonlinear Structural Equation Modeling: Is Partial Least Squares an Alternative?

Nonlinear structural equation modeling provides many advantages over analyses based on manifest variables only. Several approaches for the analysis of latent interaction effects have been developed within the last 15 years, including the partial least squares product indicator approach (PLS-PI), the constrained product indicator approach using the LISREL software (LISREL-PI), and the distributi...

Partial Least Squares: The Better Approach to Structural Equation Modeling?

With the ever-increasing acceptance of the need to empirically validate theories in the social science disciplines (e.g., Sheth, 1971), data and multivariate analysis techniques (e.g., Hair et al., 2010; Hair et al., 2011b; Mooi and Sarstedt, 2011) play a central role in today’s research. The evolution of structural equation modeling (SEM) methods is perhaps the most important and influential s...

Discrete Choice Modeling

Do the results change substantially when the restriction is imposed? Does the estimate of ρ change? The hypothesis of interest is H0: β1 = β2. You can test this hypothesis using these models with a likelihood ratio test. Compute twice the difference in the log likelihoods. What are the degrees of freedom for the test? What is the 95% critical value from the chi squared table? (It is also possib...

Designing a Commercialization Model for Research Achievements at a Military University Research Institute by Partial Least Squares Structural Equation Modeling

Background and Aim: Today, in universities and research institutes, the lack of attention to commercialization makes it impossible or difficult to enter the markets for technology and research products. therefore, this study aims to design a commercialization model for research achievements of a military research institute. Methods: This descriptive-analytic study was done in a cross-sectional ...
