Analysis
Data were analyzed using a second-generation causal modeling statistical technique; SmartPLS 2.0 was chosen because of the early stage of theoretical development. We first tested the measurement model to assess the construct validity of our measures by examining the convergent validity and discriminant validity of our measures. Then, we tested the structural model in order to determine the statistically significant relationships between our constructs. We
used a one-tailed t test to determine statistical significance of the paths in our structural model. In addition, we also performed a post-hoc analysis of the additional variables that were collected through the survey.
