In a recent article published in this journal, Yuan and Fang (British Journal of Mathematical and Statistical Psychology, 2023) suggest comparing structural equation modeling (SEM), also known as covariance-based SEM (CB-SEM), estimated by normal-distribution-based maximum likelihood (NML), to regression analysis with (weighted) composites estimated by least squares (LS) in terms of their signal-to-noise ratio (SNR). They summarize their findings in the statement that “[c]ontrary to the common belief that CB-SEM is the preferred method for the analysis of observational data, this article shows that regression analysis via weighted composites yields parameter estimates with much smaller standard errors, and thus corresponds to greater values of the [SNR].” In our commentary, we show that Yuan and Fang have made several incorrect assumptions and claims. Consequently, we recommend that empirical researchers not base their methodological choice regarding CB-SEM and regression analysis with composites on the findings of Yuan and Fang as these findings are premature and require further research.

Comparison of three ordinal logistic regression methods for predicting person’s self-assessed health status with functional, haemodynamic covariates
Markkanen, Merri-Lotta (2023)Lääketieteen parissa perinteiset kyselytutkimukset ovat yhä suosittuja, jonka myötä myös järjestysasteikollisten muuttujien analyysia suoritetaan paljon. Modernin teknologian kehittyminen näkyy kuitenkin myös tällä ... -
Structural Parameters under Partial Least Squares and Covariance-Based Structural Equation Modeling : A Comment on Yuan and Deng (2021)
Schuberth, Florian; Rosseel, Yves; Rönkkö, Mikko; Trinchera, Laura; Kline, Rex B.; Henseler, Jörg (Routledge, 2023)In their article, Yuan and Deng argue that a structural parameter under partial least squares structural equation modeling (PLS-SEM) is zero if and only if the same structural parameter is zero under covariance-based ... -
Too Small to Succeed : Small Samples and the p-Value Problem
Aguirre-Urreta, Miguel I.; Rönkkö, Mikko; McIntosh, Cameron N. (ACM, 2024)Determining an appropriate sample size is a critical planning decision in quantitative empirical research. In recent years, there has been a growing concern that researchers have excessively focused on statistical significance ... -
