Introduction to PLS-SEM workshop؛ SmartPLS4 is the New, Updated, and Much Advanced PLS-SEM tool. This workshop will guide the researchers and data analysts on how to utilize the tool to perform the basic and advance statistical techniques using SmartPLS4.

About SmartPLS4 software

SmartPLS4 is the new version of SmartPLS. The new and much advanced PLS-SEM tool has much more to offer. It is very user friendly and a great tool for both academics and practitioners to perform complex data analysis for their data.

Some highlights available in SmartPLS 4

  • A fundamentally renewed and optimized GUI
  • Significantly improved performance
  • Data import from Excel or SPSS in addition to CSV files
  • Multiple moderation (e.g., three-way interactions)
  • Testing endogeneity with Gaussian copulas
  • Regression models, including many useful diagnostics and reports to fully perform the analyses
  • PROCESS type analysis, including bootstrapping of conditional direct and indirect effects
  • Necessary condition analysis (NCA) including significance testing
  • Accounting for scale type of variables in most algorithms
  • Standardized, unstandardized and mean-centered PLS-SEM analysis
  • New datafiles can be created from calculation results directly (useful for higher-order models)
  • Many new sample models are now included
