Abstract
The objective of this paper is to provide a basic framework for researchers interested in reporting the results of their PLS analyses. Since the dominant paradigm in reporting Structural Equation Modeling results is covariance based, this paper begins by providing a discussion of key differences and rationale that researchers can use to support their use of PLS. This is followed by two examples from the discipline of Information Systems. The first consists of constructs with reflective indicators (mode A). This is followed up with a model that includes a construct with formative indicators (mode B).

A new criterion for assessing discriminant validity in variance-based structural equation modeling

TL;DR: In this paper, the heterotrait-monotrait ratio of correlations is used to assess discriminant validity in variance-based structural equation modeling. But it does not reliably detect the lack of validity in common research situations.

When to use and how to report the results of PLS-SEM

TL;DR: A comprehensive overview of the considerations and metrics required for partial least squares structural equation modeling (PLS-SEM) analysis and result reporting can be found in this paper, where the authors provide an overview of previously and recently proposed metrics as well as rules of thumb for evaluating the research results based on the application of PLSSEM.

An assessment of the use of partial least squares structural equation modeling in marketing research

TL;DR: An extensive search in the 30 top ranked marketing journals allowed us to identify 204 PLS-SEM applications published in a 30-year period (1981 to 2010), and a critical analysis of these articles addresses the following key methodological issues: reasons for using PLS, data and model characteristics, outer and inner model evaluations, and reporting.

Cross-Validatory Choice and Assessment of Statistical Predictions

TL;DR: In this article, a generalized form of the cross-validation criterion is applied to the choice and assessment of prediction using the data-analytic concept of a prescription, and examples used to illustrate the application are drawn from the problem areas of univariate estimation, linear regression and analysis of variance.

A Partial Least Squares Latent Variable Modeling Approach for Measuring Interaction Effects: Results from a Monte Carlo Simulation Study and an Electronic-Mail Emotion/Adoption Study

TL;DR: A new latent variable modeling approach is provided that can give more accurate estimates of interaction effects by accounting for the measurement error that attenuates the estimated relationships.
