It provides an interesting solution for handling a high number
of segmentation variables in partial least squares structural equation
modeling. The package implements the "Pathmox" algorithm (Lamberti, Sanchez,
and Aluja,(2016)<doi:10.1002/asmb.2168>) including the F-coefficient
test (Lamberti, Sanchez, and Aluja,(2017)<doi:10.1002/asmb.2270>)
to detect the path coefficients responsible for the identified differences).
The package also allows running the hybrid multi-group approach (Lamberti (2021)
<doi:10.1007/s11135-021-01096-9>).
