Krull and MacKinnon [2] and Baron and Kenny [3]), methods for mediational analyses, such as Structural Equation Models (SEMs), are necessary to simultaneously model mediated relationships. However, when the primary aim of an analysis is to determine the total effect (i.e. direct and ...

Variation in preen oil composition pertaining to season, sex, and genotype in the polymorphic white-throated sparrow Evidence for the the ability of birds to detect olfactory signals is now well documented, yet it remains unclear whether birds secrete chemicals that can b... EM Tuttle,PJ Sebasti...
The goal of causal mediation analysis, often described within the potential outcomes framework, is to decompose the effect of an exposure on an outcome of interest along different causal pathways. Using the assumption of sequential ignorability to attain non-parametric identification, Imai et al. (20...
A mixed-methods analysis of pediatric mediation errors from the perioperative settingHicks, Rodney W
Mixed-factor analysis of variance (ANOVA) was used to evaluate the effect of modality (between-subjects factor) and block (within-subjects factor) on mean CE, VE, and MT in the different stages of the study with separate ANOVAs being calculated to assess performance in MR and to assess ...
This therapy conveys a simple model: the resolution of changeable problems and the acceptance of the unchangeable [33]. Thus, even a single mental model can have a particularly good antidepressant effect. In MMT, we pursue the teaching of different mental models with memorable terms for cognitive...
A critical issue of possible compensatory behavior was identified by analysis of intervention effect in relation to PA measurement duration; when studies measured changes in PA during the actual intervention, there was moderate evidence of effect, whereas those that measured changes in PA during the ...

Fig. 1. Conceptual model. Apart from examining the proposed direct associations, we have also attempted to uncover the complex interplay between the examined variables by testing the mediation effect of trust between the three barriers and the two recommendation behaviours, as well as the moderation...
