“…Since enough data points were available, PLS-SEM was used to evaluate the innovativeness of small and medium-sized enterprises in Jiangsu. PLS covers structural and measurement models and the evaluation of internal model validity and dependability (Kir et al, 2021; Owusu et al, 2022). In the past three decades, PLS has grown in importance in business research (Hair, Ringle, & Sarstedt, 2012).…”

“…This assessment examines the parameters of the theoretical model and ensures its compatibility with the observed data. The significance of assessing model fit has been highlighted by multiple investigations (Benah & Li, 2020;Kir et al, 2021;Owusu et al, 2022). Using t-statistics and path coefficient values, bootstrapping was applied to evaluate the relevance of the linkages between model components and the strength of associations between these structures.…”

The current research attempts to determine the degree to which three primary elements (Human, Structural, and relational capital) and intellectual capital are related to profitability of SMEs technological inventions in China’s Jiangsu province of as part of the country’s intellectualization process in the post-industrial era. The research utilizes data from 1,450 SME listings on the Shenzhen stock market between 2012 and 2020. The VAICTM model was used in this inquiry. Using PLS-SEM, the study evaluated four significant hypotheses. The research indicates that human and structural capital have a substantial meaningful correlation regarding SMEs success. The research also discovered a favorable association between human and structural capital and technological innovation in Jiangsu province throughout the post-industrial period. However, a strong negative correlation occurred between relational capital and the financial performance of small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs). The research uncovered a substantial positive relationship between the technological innovation of SMEs and their financial success. The link between intellectual capital (HC, SC, and RC) and company performance was shown to be mediated and moderated by technological innovation. According to the findings, technical innovation considerably moderates the link between Human Capital and firm performance. The research indicated that Technical Innovation (TI) moderates the association between Structural Capital (RC) and firm performance. In contrast, Technical Innovation (TI) does not alter the association between Relational Capital (RC) and firm success in a substantial way.

This research aims to observe how social presence influences online social capital and the behavioral intention of social commerce (s-commerce). The online survey with a structured questionnaire is used to collect data and analyzed by a structural equation model (SEM). The authors found that social presence is directly connected with online social capital (bonding and bridging). Social presence is not meaningfully connected to s-commerce intention (sharing and shopping), but the cluster model argues that social presence has a significant connection with social sharing and shopping intention. Online social capital and s-commerce intention are positively related to social interaction, and the results also confirmed that social capital is a complementary mediator. The paper provides different research instructions and guidelines for consumers and scholars. They offer a user-preferred s-commerce environment that is related to helping enterprise proprietors provide personalized services and supporting clients to acquire precious purchase-related information.
