Dear Sir,Thank you for the videos, however, I did not understand your explanation on the significant results. You said that the result is significant at the 5% probability of error level, if the p-value is smaller then 0.05 or larger than 0.95 for certain different of group-specific path coefficients. please elaborate more on the "larger than 0.95"
Hello, thank you for the videos. I have a question. After MGA of two "age" groups (70 cases vs 50 cases), I realized that there is a "great" difference between the p-values of each group shown in the "Bootstrapping Results" tab (such as 0,038 vs 0,380). However, in the MGA tabs (PLS-MGA, Parametric Test and Welch-Satterthwait Test) there is no indication that shows a significant difference (less than 0,05 and greater than 0,95). In addition, there are some differences between the parametric and nonparametric MGA results. What's the best way to evaluate these results? Thank you!
Dear Scholars, Is it required to conduct omnibus test of group differences (OTG) if the study compare different categories under one group. For instance, if the study attempts to examine the heterogeneity effect in a single group, namely 'Authority type', and that includes three categories i.e. 1)Government; 2) Semi-government; and 3) Private. Sarstedt, Henseler, and Ringle (2011) proposed the omnibus test of group differences (OTG) for analyzing the differences of two and more groups of relationships. Based on the case mentioned above, according to Sarstedt, Henseler, and Ringle (2011), what is considered as a group? is it 'Authority type' ? or three classication stated under the group? Can i just conduct PLS- MGA in above case?
HiProf, I m unable to see path values over diagram after doing MGA. I am getting MGA results etc in tables but not path values over diagram. What I m missing?
In my model the variable on which I have classified my data in two groups is accreditation and that is secobdary data. Rest all are primary data. Can I run multigroup analysis on that?
dear researchers, if I want to conduct 2 categorical moderators (gender, age), do I have to run PLS-MGA for each group separately?. do I have to check the interaction effect for the whole model for each group separately?. thank you
It depends on your research goal (separate or joint analysis of interactions). You can also include both moderators into the model and analyze both interactions simultaneously.

thanks you for the videos，that really helps me.Great！
Learn how to run the multigroup analysis in SmartPLS 3!

We recommend using the permutation-based MGA; when groups sizes are highly unequal, use the bootstrap-based MGA.

Please check the reports of the newer SmartPLS versions.
In my model the variable on which I have classified my data in two groups is accreditation and that is secobdary data. Rest all are primary data.
Can I run multigroup analysis on that?
Sure, this should be possible.
please , how to compare more than 2 groups?
Please check the MGA chapter in this book: www.smartpls.com/documentation/getting-started/book-on-advanced-pls-sem-issues
