Moreover some different theoretic bases and method characters showed among SEM, PLS-SEM and GSCASEM. This study also proposed how to assess model quality, conducted basic and advance analytic procedure, operated software, and illustrated regulations of final report about PLS-SEM. Finally this study described characters of educational leadership research, discussed how to connect educational leadership research with PLS-SEM, and pointed out application theme for using PLS-SEM. |
