4 6 Content Use of the multivariate statistical technique of factor analysis increased during the past decade in all fields of business-related research. As the number of variables to be considered in multivariate techniques increases, so does the need for knowledge of the structure and interrelationships of the variables. Factor analysis can be utilized to examine the underlying patterns or relationships for a large number of variables and to determine whether the information can be condensed or summarized in a smaller set of factors or components. Structural equation modeling depicts an extension of the classical factor analysis which allows explaining relationships among latent variables (constructs). Thus, it allows to empirically validate theoretically established causal models in the various social science disciplines such as marketing (e.g., to perform research on brand equity, consumer behavior, and customer satisfaction) or management (e.g., to evaluate factors that influence of alliance networks on firm performance). Covariance-based structural equation modeling (CBSEM) and partial least squares analysis (PLS) path modeling constitute the two matching statistical techniques for estimating structural equation models. Both apply to the same class of models - structural equations with unobservable variables and measurement error - but they have different structures and objectives. For example, the goal of CBSEM is to account for observed covariances (theory testing), whereas PLS rather aims at explaining variances (prediction-oriented character). Furthermore, CBSEM offers statistical precision in the context of stringent assumptions while PLS trades parameter efficiency for prediction accuracy, simplicity, and fewer assumptions. Lastly, CBSEM requires relatively large samples for accurate estimation and relatively few variables and constructs for convergence. The objective of this course is to define and explain in broad, conceptual terms the fundamental aspects of factor analytic techniques. More precisely, it aims at providing an in-depth methodological introduction into the factor analysis, CBSEM and PLS path modeling approach (the nature of causal modeling, analytical objectives, some statistics), including the evaluation of analysis results, and an introduction to complementary analytical techniques. Practical applications and the use of the software applications PASW Statistics ( AMOS ( and SmartPLS ( are an integral part of this course. 4/7
5 7 Prerequisites The course requires basic skills in statistics and multivariate data analysis techniques. Concepts such as mean values, standard deviations and covariance matrices should sound familiar to the participants. In addition, a basic understanding of factor analytic approaches, regression analysis as well as testing procedures is helpful but not an essential requirement for understanding the contents. A recap session on elementary statistics is integrated at the beginning of the course. 8 Course Material Essential Reading Material Factor Analysis & Construct Development Backhaus, K./Erichson, B./Plinke, W./Weiber, R.
