ADANCO (“advanced analysis of composites”) is a software with graphical user interface for variance-based structural equation modeling (SEM)[1] using among others the partial least squares (PLS) method[2][3] including consistent PLS.[4][5] The software can be used in empirical research to analyze primary or secondary data and test theories that consist of relationships between scientific constructs. ADANCO runs on Windows and macOS operating systems.
Data[edit]
ADANCO uses raw data saved as .xls or .xlsx files. The columns of the data file represent the variables; the rows represent observations and responses. The first row of data should contain the variable names. Missing values should be coded as “NA”.[3]
Specifying models[edit]
ADANCO allows users to specify four different types of measurement models: reflective measurement models (common factor models), causal-formative measurement models (MIMIC models), single-indicator measurement models, and composite-formative measurement models. ADANCO resolves the sign-indeterminacy problem of multi-indicator constructs by means of the dominant-indicator approach.[3]
Testing models[edit]
ADANCO allows users to empirically test models using bootstrap-based tests of overall model fit.[4] Moreover, it provides measures of approximate fit.[6]
