PLS-SEM’s most wanted guidance

Purpose Partial least squares structural equation modeling (PLS-SEM) has attracted much attention from both methodological and applied researchers in various disciplines – also in hospitality management research. Originality/value There has as yet been no systematic analysis of this kind in the field of PLS-SEM; the authors, therefore, present the first research results.

⚡ This is an original paraphrased summary — not copied from the abstract. Full paper available at the source link below.

• 1 As PLS-SEM is relatively new compared to other multivariate analysis techniques, there are still numerous open questions and uncertainties in its application.
• 2 This study aims to address this important issue by offering guidance regarding its use in contexts with which researchers struggle.
• 3 Design/methodology/approach The authors examine the most prominent questions and answers posed in a well-known PLS-SEM discussion forum.

This research advances how AI systems learn, reason, and solve problems — with direct implications for automation and scientific discovery.
