An Integrated Pls Regression-based Approach for Multidimensional Blocks in Pls Path Modeling
نویسندگان
چکیده
PLS Path Modeling (PLS-PM) is classically regarded as a component-based approach to Structural Equation Models and has been more recently revisited as a general framework for multiple table analysis. Here we propose two new modes for estimating outer weights in PLS-PM: the PLScore Mode and the PLScow Mode. Both modes involve integrating a PLS Regression as an estimation technique within the outer estimation phase of PLS-PM. However, in PLScore Mode a PLS Regression is run under the classical PLS-PM constraints of unitary variance for the latent variable scores, while in PLScow Mode the outer weights are constrained to have a unitary norm thus importing the classical normalization constraints of PLS Regression. Moreover, we show how the newly proposed modes are linked to the standard Mode A and Mode B outer estimates in PLS-PM as well as to the New Mode A recently proposed in a criterion-based approach by Tenenhaus & Tenenhaus (2009). 1 in ria -0 04 94 81 5, v er si on 1 24 J un 2 01 0 Manuscrit auteur, publié dans "42èmes Journées de Statistique, Marseille, France : France (2010)"

Understanding PLS path modeling parameters estimates: a study based on Monte Carlo simulation and customer satisfaction surveys
PLS path modeling (Partial Least Squares path modeling) has found increased interests since being used in the context of marketing studies. In this paper, we use Monte Carlo simulation and real life datasets to investigate the effects of changes in the model specification or in the data. We first introduce PLS path modeling and some already well-known properties of this approach; we then conduc...
متن کاملOn the convergence of the partial least squares path modeling algorithm
This paper adds to an important aspect of Partial Least Squares (PLS) path modeling, namely the convergence of the iterative PLS path modeling algorithm. Whilst conventional wisdom says that PLS always converges in practice, there is no formal proof for path models with more than two blocks of manifest variables. This paper presents six cases of non-convergence of the PLS path modeling algorith...
متن کاملA nonlinear PLS path modeling based on monotonic B-spline transformations
INTRODUCTION PLS path modeling is widely used in marketing applications. It is based on linear equations. However, in practical applications, many relations cannot be regarded as linear. For example, the relations between satisfaction and its attributes are nonlinear (Mittal et al., 1998). In this paper, we present a two step approach in order to include nonlinear relationships between manifest...
متن کاملFuzzy PLS Path Modeling: A New Tool For Handling Sensory Data
In sensory analysis a panel of assessors gives scores to blocks of sensory attributes for profiling products, thus yielding a three-way table crossing assessors, attributes and products. In this context, it is important to evaluate the panel performance as well as to synthesize the scores into a global assessment to investigate differences between products. Recently, a combined approach of fuzz...
متن کاملPLS Path Modeling: From Foundations to Recent Developments and Open Issues for Model Assessment and Improvement
In this chapter the authors first present the basic algorithm of PLS Path Modeling by discussing some recently proposed estimation options. Namely, they introduce the development of new estimation modes and schemes for multidimensional (formative) constructs, i.e. the use of PLS Regression for formative indicators, and the use of path analysis on latent variable scores to estimate path coeffici...
