You'll need to provide more details. I use Partial Least Squares
occasionally, but I have really never seen it used with only 2
variables, one X and one Y. Usually it is used when there are multiple
X and possibly multiple Y.
In the case where Partial Least Squares is used on one X and one Y,
you ought to get the same answer as Ordinary Least Squares, and I am
not used to seeing any output of either procedure being labelled g.
