Three articles are also very useful in assessing validity when the variables are modeled as reflective and formative latent variables:

Formative Measurement:

Amora, J. T. (2023). On the validity assessment of formative measurement models in PLS-SEMData Analysis Perspectives Journal, 4(2), 1-7.


Reflective Measurement:

Amora, J. T. (2021). Convergent validity assessment in PLS-SEM: A loadings-driven approachData Analysis Perspectives Journal, 2(3), 1-6.
