A partial least squares (PLS) path modeling approach to the analysis of structural equations with latent variables is considered. The author describes Wold's and Lohmöller's iterative procedures for the computation of latent variables. It is shown that Wold's procedure is monotonically convergent while Lohmöller's one is not. The limiting values of Wold's procedure latent variables weights are characterized as solutions to a constrained quadratic minimization problem.
