Average Variance Extracted (AVE) and Fornell–Larcker criteria confirmed the constructs’ validity, while composite reliability scores exceeded the recommended threshold of 0.70. In addition, the SEM is also known as a practical way to test the theory of research since it highlights the measurement ...
(AVE) values exceed the critical 0.5 threshold for both ISMS and national culture, ensuring that the variance captured by each construct is larger than the variance due to measurement error [35,59]. Additionally, the fact that the AVE values are lower than the CR values supports the strong ...
Discriminant validity requires that the AVE of the two variables be greater than the square of the correlation coefficient, and since all correlation coefficients are distributed in the range of 0.201 to 0.405, and the values of the AVE are all greater than this, discriminant validity was ...
Some cryptocurrencies, such as Bitcoin, have their own dedicated blockchain, whereas decentralized finance (DeFi) tokens, like Chainlink and Aave, run on or use an available existing blockchain, most commonly Ethereum [48]. Tokens in the latter category help decentralized applications do every...
(0.717), all other values of the square root of AVE from a factor are higher than the correlation shared among the factors and other factors in the research model, as presented inTable 2. This indicates that each construct is statistically different from the other constructs. The preceding ...

The AVE scores must be given in terms of convergent validity. The SmartPLS scores were calculated using a PLS-SEM technique. The AVE score should be more than, or equal to, 500, and it should explain at least 50% of the variation. The AVE value for all constructions is larger than ...

The estimation of this validity pointed out that the square root of the AVE for each construct was always higher than the correlation figure for any pair of constructs. For instance, the correlation between UA and BI was 0.42, which was less than the square root of the AVE presented along ...
