Good day.
I have a reflective-formative HCM.
Each HOC is formatively measured by 2-4 LOCs in the model.
I need clarification on the following question:
Is it necessary to have hypotheses for the formation of formative-measured HOC in PLS—SEM?
Eg. Compatibility is formatively formed by personal compatibility and social compatibility.
Do I need to have hypotheses for the above formative measurements?
Looking forward to learn from all of you.
Thank you.
