		Transparent PLS-SEM Estimation for Composite-Based Reflective
		Models // A transparent and modular implementation of Partial
		Least Squares Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM) focused on
		reflective measurement models (Mode A). The package separates
		estimation, bootstrap inference, and predictive evaluation into
		independent components, emphasising algorithmic transparency,
		reproducibility, and researcher-controlled analysis. Methods
		are based on Tenenhaus, Esposito Vinzi, Chatelin  Lauro (2005)
