El profesor Jörg Henseler, de la University of Twente, ofrece una conferencia en la Facultad de Ciencias Económicas y Empresariales
Dr. Jörg Henseler

El profesor Jörg Henseler (University of Twente) impartirá el próximo lunes 14 de enero de 2019 dos seminarios avanzados sobre metodología de investigación y la técnica Partial Least Squares (PLS-SEM). Ambos seminarios se desarrollarán en el Aula 15, 1ª planta de la Facultad de Ciencias Económicas y Empresariales, de 16:30 a 19:30h. El seminario se impartirá en español. Este seminario esta organizado por el Programa de Doctorado en Gestión Estratégica y Negocios Internacionales en colaboración con el Instituto de Economía y Negocios de la Universidad de Sevilla.

Dado el interés que ha despertado la visita del Prof. Henseler, será necesario inscribirse previamente enviando un correo al profesor Gabriel Cepeda (gabi@us.es). Plazas limitadas.

Session 1.

Title: Rigor versus Relevance in Business Research

16:30 – 17:30

Abstract: Rigor and relevance are two desirable properties of business research that often are understood as being subject to a trade-off.In this talk, I disentangle the two, and show that whereas relevance refers to what is researched, rigor refers to how the research is conducted.I introduce design research as an opportunity for crafting more relevant business research, and provide some suggestions for making such research rigorous.

Session 2.

Title: Using PLS for Confirmatory Design-Oriented Business Research

18:00 – 19:30

Abstract: In recent years, PLS path modeling has undergone a fierce discussion and re-examination, and many new developments have substantially changed our understanding of what PLS can offer to business research. In this talk, I demonstrate that PLS is very useful for confirmatory design-oriented research, i.e., testing theories about human-made objects, so-called artifacts. To model artifacts such as strategies, tools, interventions, portfolios, capabilities, systems, processes, methods and the like, emergent variables make much more sense than latent variables. I introduce confirmatory composite analysis as a third type of covariance structure analysis (next to confirmatory factor analysis and structural equation modeling), provide evidence for its efficacy by means of a simulation study, and demonstrate its usefulness by assessing two potential artifacts, product intelligence and brand equity.
