2020 International Conference on Partial Least Squares Structural Equation Modeling (Beijing, China)

The PLS2020 conference is aimed at bringing the community of researchers and practitioners empirically applying and/or methodologically advancing the PLS-SEM method together. PLS2020 welcomes both novices and world-leading experts on the method. In its spirit of sharing and caring, this special conference will endeavor to develop the method further in all respects. We believe that the PLS2020 results will guide PLS-SEM research strongly during the coming years. In addition, PLS2020 will emphasize the rigor of and set new standards for the method's application. Against this background, we look forward to receiving the following types of submissions:

1) Applications of PLS-SEM: The conference will highlight best-practice PLS-SEM applications in various disciplines. In particular, we welcome PLS-SEM applications in marketing, international business, strategic management, information systems, accounting, human resource management, organizational behavior, service management, operations management, and innovation management. However, submissions from fields outside the social sciences that use PLS-SEM are highly welcome (e.g., computer science, engineering, medicine, etc.).

2) Methodological advances: PLS2020 will be a platform for the fruitful exchange of new concepts and methodological advances in the field. Some of the emerging topics include factor-based vs. composite-based model estimation (e.g., PLSc, PLSF), goodness-of-fit measures, predictive model assessment, longitudinal data analysis, robust segmentation methods, and the use of PLS-SEM for predictive vs. explanatory research.
