Comparing PLS to Regression and LISREL: A Response to Marcoulides, Chin, and Saunders
نویسندگان
چکیده
We note that in cases where the model errors are not explicitly taken into account for the estimation of endogenous latent variables, a new approach proposed by Vittadini et al. (2007) would need to be used to appropriately determine the PLS model estimates. This is because in PLS the reflective scheme assumed for the endogenous latent variables is inverted (i.e., the model errors are not taken into account). Savalei and Bentler (2007) have also indicated that with this type of model, PLS estimates (for example, those obtained by regression on factor scores) are generally biased as estimators of regression among latent variables (p. 172).

Comparing Pls to Regression and Lisrel : a Response to Marcoulides , Chin , and Saunders 1
In the Foreword to an MIS Quarterly Special Issue on PLS, the senior editors for the special issue noted that they rejected a number of papers because the authors attempted comparisons between results from PLS, multiple regression, and structural equation modeling (Marcoulides et al. 2009). They raised several issues they argued had to be taken into account to have legitimate comparison studies...
متن کاملWhen Imprecise Statistical Statements Become Problematic: A Response to Goodhue, Lewis, and Thompson
We wish to thank the editors of MISQ for inviting this commentary in response to the Issues and Opinions piece by Goodhue, Lewis, and Thompson (hereinafter GLT). We must admit we were somewhat surprised when we received a lengthy Issues and Opinions paper that responded to our slightly over four page (published) Foreword to the 2009 MIS Quarterly Special Issue on PLS (Marcoulides et al. 2009). ...
متن کاملNonlinear 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...
متن کاملPartial Least Squares Is to Lisrel as Principal Components Analysis Is to Common Factor Analysis
The decision of whether to use PLS instead of a covariance based structural equation modeling technique such as LISREL for causal modeling can be assisted by looking at the differences between principal components analysis and common factor analysis. Through such a process, this paper outlines the need for PLS users to shift from merely estimating model parameters to that of including measures ...
متن کاملComparing Regression, PLS, and LISREL Using a Monte Carlo Simulation
This study uses Monte Carlo simulation to compare three relatively popular techniques, with findings that run counter to extant suggestions in MIS literature. We compare multiple regression, Partial Least Squares and LISREL under varying sample sizes (N = 40, 90, 150, and 200) and varying effect sizes (large, medium, small and no effect). The focus of the analysis was on determining how frequen...
