SmartPLS is a Windows program oriented toward scientists and students. It allows you to use various statistical algorithms for calculating latent variable models. Detailed operational reports can be exported to XLS or HTML files for troubleshooting potential issues. Please note that the free version of this utility will expire 30 days after activating the trial license.

Supported algorithms and techniques

Users can perform nonparametric procedures like bootstrapping for testing the statistical significance of various PLS-SEM results like path coefficients and HTMT values. Instruments for data blindfolding are provided as well.

It is possible to apply logistic regression, mediation and moderation algorithms to the project. You are able to identify all nonlinear relationships between individual database elements. Additionally, there are tools for analyzing paths and predicting permutations.

Resulting statistical models can be saved to the hard drive for further analysis in Mathcad or another similar utility.

General preferences

The Settings menu allows users to allocate more memory to the application for performing complex calculations. Flexible localization parameters are included as well.
