query regarding adapted/adopted scales

[Savita Prasad]

Dear Neeraj Sir and group members,

I am writing to seek your expert guidance on the use of measurement scales in my thesis study, which employs PLS-SEM.

In my questionnaire, I have adopted certain constructs using established scales from prior literature, while for a few other constructs, I have adapted items to suit the contextual and conceptual requirements of my research. All constructs are grounded in theory and aligned with the proposed conceptual framework.

I would like to kindly confirm whether the simultaneous use of adopted and adapted scales within the same instrument is methodologically acceptable for PLS-SEM analysis.

Your guidance on best practices for reporting scale adoption and adaptation would be highly valuable for strengthening the rigor of my study.

Thank you very much for your time and support.
