Singular Matrix problem in Smart Pls

[Palak Mittal]

Respected group members 

While apply PLS-SEM, I am getting the error of singular Matrix problem. Can anyone help me about this issue?

Dear Palak

You must be using same items/ variable twice.

For example if you apply gender as control variable and run MGA for gender. It will show singular matrix problem. 

In this case if you delete gender as control variable and run MGA. There will be no issue. 

Regards
