Partial Least Square (PLS) is a variance-based structural equation analysis (SEM) that can test measurement models as well as test structural models. Researchers used primary data with a convenience sampling method in collecting data. The population in this study was 60 auditors who worked in KAP in the Palembang area. The sample in this study consisted of 46 respondents from auditors who worked at the Public Accounting Firm in the Palembang area.
