The moderator–mediator variable distinction in social psychological research: Conceptual, strategic, and statistical considerations.
Reuben M. Baron,David A. Kenny +1 more
TL;DR: This article seeks to make theorists and researchers aware of the importance of not using the terms moderator and mediator interchangeably by carefully elaborating the many ways in which moderators and mediators differ, and delineates the conceptual and strategic implications of making use of such distinctions with regard to a wide range of phenomena.
Asymptotic and resampling strategies for assessing and comparing indirect effects in multiple mediator models
TL;DR: An overview of simple and multiple mediation is provided and three approaches that can be used to investigate indirect processes, as well as methods for contrasting two or more mediators within a single model are explored.

lavaan: An R Package for Structural Equation Modeling
TL;DR: The aims behind the development of the lavaan package are explained, an overview of its most important features are given, and some examples to illustrate how lavaan works in practice are provided.
SPSS and SAS procedures for estimating indirect effects in simple mediation models.
TL;DR: It is argued the importance of directly testing the significance of indirect effects and provided SPSS and SAS macros that facilitate estimation of the indirect effect with a normal theory approach and a bootstrap approach to obtaining confidence intervals to enhance the frequency of formal mediation tests in the psychology literature.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present a systematic presentation of statistical methods used for the analysis of economic data and the properties of various procedures are studied within the framework of theoretical stochastic models, and their relevance for inference on the economic phenomena is discussed at length.
Indirect Effects in Path Analysis
TL;DR: The indirect effect in path analysis has been defined as equal to the difference between the correlation coefficient and the path coefficient as mentioned in this paper, which has led to ambiguous and inconsistent interpretation of the indirect effect.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present a course book on the causal modeling approach to theory construction and data analysis, which provides a comprehensive multidisciplinary picture of the work on causal models.
