This case study analyzes the application of parametric and nonparametric statistical analyses with the multiple linear regression model in education and agricultural education research. The fields of education and agricultural education heavily rely on parametric analyses. We questioned the validity of the extensive use of such approaches after…

Moderated multiple regression (MMR) has become a fundamental tool for applied researchers, since many effects are expected to vary based on other variables. However, the inherent complexity of MMR creates formidable challenges for adequately performing power analysis on interaction effects to ensure reliable and replicable research results. Prior…

Background/purpose: It revisits Partial Least Squares Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM) as a robust tool for analyzing non-normal data and small samples, offering predictive modeling advantages. This study also compares the merits, practical applications, and added value of both tools in tackling complicated research issues, notably in…
