Formative variable - SEM options in JASP?

Liesbeth

Hi there,

I was wondering if anyone can recommend a way to deal woth a formative variable in SEM analysis in JASP?

For example, some literature on how to do this with pathway/SEM equations?

I was also wondering if PLS SEM is possible in JASP and how to go about this. Thanks!

Hi Liesbeth,

PLS SEM is not yet possible in JASP, but we have it on our radar.

Otherwise, JASP uses Lavaan syntax, so whatever works in Lavaan will work in JASP (which is really just a GUI on steroids for R and R packages).

Cheers,

EJ.
