Moreover, this study examines the multiple mediation effects of career learning self-efficacy and work volition on the cause-effect relationship.
We also found multiple mediation effects of career learning self-efficacy and work volition on the relationship between predictor (perceived career-training mentorship) and the outcome (career-related behaviors and performance in practical skills) variables.
We ran two mediation analyses: (1) single mediation models (unadjusted, a model that has single mediator), (2) multiple mediation model (adjusted, to obtain the significance of individual mediators within the context of a model that has multiple mediators simultaneously and account for the biological direction between mediators).
To identify the presence of mediation, the distribution of the product approach (DOPA) (24) was used via a series of multiple mediation models.
Additionally, we plan to use structural equation models and/or multiple mediation analyses to assess the presence of predictors of the results of the intervention [ 58].
By means of a multiple mediation model suggested by Preacher and Hayes [ 75], we will test the mediating effect of mindfulness skills, self-compassion, rumination and adherence to MBSR on psychological distress, quality of life (only in patients), caregiver appraisal (only in partners), relationship quality and spirituality.
Moreover we will explore possible mediated effects of our intervention on the various behavioural measures relying on multiple mediation analysis using the syntax of Preacher and Hayes [ 96] for SPSS, and test direct and indirect effects in a path model using AMOS 18 [ 97].
We also conducted a multiple mediation model including three mediators.
A bootstrapped multiple mediation analysis was used to examine the mediating role of patients' pain intensity and opioid craving in the association between NA and prescription opioid misuse.
To examine whether associations are mediated by other variables, multiple mediation analysis will be used [ 70].
