Since all my measurement scales (for my indicators) are the same, I would like to report unstandardized path coefficients, since they are easier to conceptualize than standard deviations. However, everything I read says to use standardized results for MGA. Why can't I use unstandardized?
Take a look here and check the links on PLSpredict and CVPAT: https://www.smartpls.com/documentation/algorithms-and-techniques/blindfolding
Hello and respect
PLS-MGA is an important method to show significant difference between groups. Hence, all variables should have the same scale levels. PLS-MGA evaluation for variables with different scales will not give correct results. Also, in the case of a different scale, it can be unconventionally converted to a common scale to make a more accurate assessment.
