Dear colleagues, linked below is a blog post on the topic:
Combining sub-samples for improved statistical power in PLS-SEM: A constrained latent growth approach
(The post summarizes an article, which has just been made available online. The article discusses how a researcher can combine sub-samples for improved statistical power in multigroup analyses, employing a constrained latent growth approach, in the context of structural equation modeling via partial least squares (PLS-SEM).)
