Testing measurement invariance of composites using partial least squares
International Marketing Review, 2016 Purpose– Research on international marketing usually involves comparing different groups of respondents. When using structural equation modeling (SEM), group comparisons can be misleading unless researchers establish the invariance of their measures. While methods have been proposed to analyze measurement invariance in common factor models, research ...

Measurement invariance testing in partial least squares structural equation modeling [PDF]
Journal of Business ResearchWhen using structural equation modeling, comparison across time or groups can be misleading if measures are not invariant. Partial least squares structural equation modeling (PLS-SEM) is a method widely used in business research, but its ability to test for measurement invariance is limited.

Invariant measures for stochastic partial differential equations in unbounded domains [PDF]
Nonlinearity, 2000 A parabolic partial differential equation with stochastic perturbations with coefficients not depending on the gradient of the unknown functions is analyzed. It allows to work with so called ``mild solutions'' and to use specific techniques both to prove the existence of a solution and of an invariant measure.

Scaling Metric Measurement Invariance Models
Methodology, 2023 This paper aims at clarifying the questions regarding the effects of the scaling method on the discrepancy function of the metric measurement invariance model. We provide examples and a formal account showing that neither the choice of the scaling method
