SmartPLS

SmartPLS is a software with graphical user interface for variance-based structural equation modeling (SEM) using the partial least squares (PLS) path modeling method.[1][2][3][4] Besides estimating path models with latent variables using the PLS-SEM algorithm,[5][6] the software computes standard results assessment criteria (e.g., for the reflective and formative measurement models, the structural model, and the goodness of fit)[7] and it supports additional statistical analyses (e.g., confirmatory tetrad analysis, importance-performance map analysis, segmentation, multigroup).[8] [9]Since SmartPLS is programmed in Java, it can be executed and run on different computer operating systems such as Windows and Mac.[10]
