Discriminant validity assessment using HTMT (heterotrait-monotrait) ratio criterion

VariableMedia typePhysiological arousalPresence: Self locationPresence: Possible actionsAgeIntention to visit
Physiological arousal0.658    
Presence: Self location0.3350.307   
Presence: Possible actions0.1960.1450.857  
Age0.0240.1330.1380.301 
Intention to visit0.2280.1630.4380.3380.246
Intention to recommend0.2720.3360.4840.3100.0220.722

Notes: All the values are below the threshold of 0.85, apart from HTMT value between the two components of Presence (Possible Actions and Self Location). However, this value is still acceptable, given that for conceptually similar constructs a threshold of 0.90 is usually adopted (Hair et al., 2021a, 2021b)
