| 1 | Indicator Reliability | The minimum criteria or threshold for factor loading is (>0.6) | Oke et al. (2022), Hair et al. (2021) |
| 2 | Internal Consistency Reliability | The threshold value of Cronbach's alpha is ≥0.7, and CR is ≥0.7 | Lai (2021), Oke et al. (2022) |
| 3 | Convergent Validity | The threshold value for Average Variance Extracted (AVE) is ≥0.50 | Hair et al. (2021), Shafie et al. (2021) |
| 4 | Discriminant Validity | Discriminant Validity: Threshold values for Fornell–Larcker, Cross-loadings and Hetrotrait-Monotrait Ratio (HTMT Ratio) are <1 | Oke et al. (2022), Kumar et al. (2021), Roemer et al. (2021) |
| 5 | Multicollinearity | Collinearity b/w indicators: No. Multicollinearity if the value of *VIF <10, Severe Multicollinearity if the value of VIF >10 and Mild Multicollinearity if the value of VIF <10 and >5.” | Ahmed and Ishtiaq (2021), Hair (2019) |
