A construct is considered to exhibit discriminant validity when it shares more variance with its assigned indicators than with any other latent variable.It is recommended that the AVE value of each LV should be higher than the squared correlations with all other latent variables.Conversely,the square root value of the AVE of each construct should be greater than its correlation value with all the other constructs.The off-diagonal elements in table 5 represent the square roots of the AVE for the constructs.As each off-diagonal value was greater than the corresponding construct correlation with other constructs in the model.This demonstrates that all the constructs possessed adequate discriminant validity.Having examined the measurement model with the criteria of internal reliability.concluded that the model adequately met the quality criteria.
