MARTINEZ AVILA, Minerva  and  FIERRO MORENO, Eréndira. Application of the PLS-SEM technique in Knowledge Management: a practical technical approach. RIDE. Rev. Iberoam. Investig. Desarro. Educ [online]. 2018, vol.8, n.16, pp.130-164. ISSN 2007-7467.  https://doi.org/10.23913/ride.v8i16.336.

The objective of this research is to present a documentary review about the multivariate method (second generation) called structural equation modeling with partial least squares that is having a good acceptance in the scientific community in the area of social sciences because it is an alternative approach that is robust and more flexible than the traditional. It begins with basic methodological aspects of the technique and through empirical data and a research model is evaluated with the purpose that the reader can observe values of the measurement models, of the structural model and the evaluation of global model.

The originality and the value allows the use of the technique and the guidelines for the application and the interpretation of their results through the use of SmartPLS.

Keywords : structural equation modeling; PLS-SEM; measurement theory.
