“…Also, to ascertain that the model is in order, the standardized root mean square residual (SRMR) was used as an index, and the model's values were found to be 0.060 and 0.032 for PLS and for PLSc, respectively (Henseler et al, 2014). Both these values are less than the highest threshold value of 0.08, as recommended by Hu and Bentler (1998) Augner and Hacker (2012), Burnett and Lloyd (2020), Choliz (2012), Leung (2008), Rosenbaum and Wong (2012) 0.85 0.93 SIIQ1 0.94 SIIQ2 0.95 SIIQ3 0.91 SIIQ4 0.92 SIIQ5 0.90 Ease of using instant messaging (EOUIM) Bandura (1997), Garret and Danziger (2008), Gong et al (2018), Sangma (2017) Hamari et al (2015), Kim and Srivastava (2007), Kim and Shin (2015), Zeithaml (1988) Agarwal (2015), Hinduja (2004), Mehta and Singh (2013), Moitra (2005), Narahari and Shah (2016) confirming that the model is in order. This process helped us to assess the path coefficients, p-values and R 2 values.…”
