SAS ® for Bayesian Mediation Analysis
Recent statistical mediation analysis research focuses on using Bayesian methods for several reasons including the ability to incorporate prior information about model parameters, ease of constructing intervals for simple and complex models, and exact inference for small samples without restrictive assumptions of conventional mediation analysis (Yuan & MacKinnon, 2009).The focus of this paper i...
متن کاملSignaling and mediation in Bayesian games
Two players participate in a Bayesian game. Before they take any actions each receives a stochastic signal that depends on the actual state of nature. The signals the players receive are determined by the information structure, which in turn, determines the equilibria of the game. Two information structures are equivalent with respect to a certain solution concept, if the equilibria they genera...
متن کاملA default Bayesian hypothesis test for mediation.
In order to quantify the relationship between multiple variables, researchers often carry out a mediation analysis. In such an analysis, a mediator (e.g., knowledge of a healthy diet) transmits the effect from an independent variable (e.g., classroom instruction on a healthy diet) to a dependent variable (e.g., consumption of fruits and vegetables). Almost all mediation analyses in psychology u...
متن کاملMediation analysis.
Mediating variables are prominent in psychological theory and research. A mediating variable transmits the effect of an independent variable on a dependent variable. Differences between mediating variables and confounders, moderators, and covariates are outlined. Statistical methods to assess mediation and modern comprehensive approaches are described. Future directions for mediation analysis a...
متن کاملmediation: R Package for Causal Mediation Analysis
In this paper, we describe the R package mediation for conducting causal mediation analysis in applied empirical research. In many scientific disciplines, the goal of researchers is not only estimating causal effects of a treatment but also understanding the process in which the treatment causally affects the outcome. Causal mediation analysis is frequently used to assess potential causal mecha...
