This tutorial presents an approach to perform the PLS structural equation modeling using the R. For this purpose, the practical guide defines the criteria for the PLS structural equation modeling by reviewing previous studies, and shows how to analyze the research model with an example using the "plspm" which is the R package for the performing PLS path analysis against the criteria. This practical guide will be useful for the study of the PLS model analysis for new researchers and will provide the knowledge base for in-depth analysis through the new PLS structural equation modeling technique using R which is the integrated statistical software operating environment for the researchers familiar with the PLS structural equation modeling.

This study provides an approach to perform the double mediation analysis in structural equation models using the R. For this purpose, the study reviews a variety of techniques for mediation analysis, selects the bootstrapping technique as the most suitable way for performing the double mediation analysis and develops an approach for the double mediation analysis in structural equating models with the bootstrapping using the plspm which is the R package for the performing PLS path analysis. This study will be useful for the studies including the double mediation analysis in structural equation modeling, which is not supported by most of SEM packages, also will provide the knowledge base for in-depth analysis through suggesting the new mediation analysis technique using R for the researchers.

Many organizations try to hire and retain a well-trained workforce to get their security level of IT assets and networks. However, most academic studies have focused on only how many workforces are needed to keep the secure function. We have to transit to other aspects of cybersecurity HRM studies because well-training workforces are not the problem of numbers but the quality. This study proves how the person-job fit and the work values impact job satisfaction of the cybersecurity workforce in early careers who graduated school recently and have a high turnover intention. The results of this study provide a lot of practical implications regarding job satisfaction of the cybersecurity workforce in an early career as follows. First, the major-job fit of the cybersecurity workforce doesn't influence job satisfaction, unlike other studies. Second, what graduates learned in college is little helpful in hands-on work, so retraining the cybersecurity workforce in an early career is very important. Third, the cybersecurity HRM plans have to center on realizing the self-realization of workforces to improve job satisfaction.
