Abstract- The presentation highlights the basics of Smart PLS3. It focuses on importing of Data in CSV and text formats, making a model with latent variables and observed variables. Finally, it shows how to estimate the SEM model. SmartPLS is software with a graphical user interface for variance-based structural equation modeling (SEM) using partial least squares (PLS) path modeling method. Besides estimating path models with latent variables using PLS-SEM algorithm, the software computes standard results assessment criteria (e.g., for reflective and formative measurement models, structural model, and goodness of fit).
