While evaluating measurement model, how to interpret; if item 2 load on first construct with a loading of 0.679 with a t-value of 6.306 and its loading on main variable is 0.643 and t value is 6.031.
After dragging the same item 2 to construct 2, its loading is 0.655 with t value of 6.673 and load on main variable as 0.649 with t value of 5.751 how to interpret.
As the loading and t value of item 2 on construct first is high 0.679 but it t value is less 6.306. while the loading of the same item on construct 2 is comparatively less 0.655 with high t value 6.673.
Its simple Tehseen!!
How to interpret, high item loading and low item t value e.g. item 2, as mentioned (0.679 item loading with 6.306 item t value), and low item loading with high t value (0.655 item loading with 6.673 item t value).
i am also confused but anyway, the main purpose of factor rotation using smarpls is to obtain a simple structure of factors. Hair (2010, p. 138) suggest that a factor(item) loading higher than 0.40 is considered statistically significant at an alpha level of .05. Thus, the item loading, which is more than 0.40, was considered to be significan.
u can also use my published paper using smartpls. it my help u.
all the best
Please read this (attached) article carefully and I hope you can solve your problem.
Not my cup of tea.
