1. Pemahaman dasar SEM dan perbedaan antara CB-SEM dan PLS-SEM.
2. Penentuan dan evaluasi model reflektif dan formatif.
3. Penyusunan model pengukuran dan struktural menggunakan SmartPLS 4.
4. Proses pengolahan data yang bersih, penarikan model, hingga interpretasi hasil analisis outer dan inner model.
5. Teknik lanjutan seperti analisis mediasi, moderasi, dan Importance-Performance Map Analysis (IPMA).
Salah satu nilai tambah buku ini adalah pembahasan tentang Multi-Group Analysis (MGA), yaitu teknik untuk membandingkan model struktural antarkelompok (misalnya: jenis kelamin, latar belakang pendidikan, atau kelompok usia). Bab khusus ini mengajarkan pembaca cara melakukan uji perbedaan antarkelompok menggunakan pendekatan PLS-MGA, serta bagaimana menginterpretasikan hasil secara statistik dan substantif. Dengan kelengkapan isi dan pendekatan berbasis praktik, buku ini diharapkan menjadi pegangan utama dalam memahami dan menjalankan analisis PLS-SEM secara profesional, sekaligus membantu meningkatkan kualitas karya ilmiah di bidang akademik maupun industri.
