rmedsem: Statistical Mediation Analysis for SEMs
Conducts mediation analysis for structural equation models (SEM)
estimated with 'lavaan', 'blavaan', 'cSEM', or 'modsem'. Implements
the Baron and Kenny (1986) <doi:10.1037/0022-3514.51.6.1173> and
Zhao, Lynch & Chen (2010) <doi:10.1086/651257>
approaches to determine the presence and type of mediation. Supports
covariance-based SEM, partial least squares SEM, Bayesian SEM, and
moderated mediation and mediated moderation models. Tests indirect
effects with the Sobel, Delta, Monte-Carlo, and bootstrap methods or,
for Bayesian models, with posterior summaries and equal-tailed or highest
density credible intervals. Reports the effect size measures RIT, RID,
and Upsilon of Lachowicz, Preacher and Kelley (2018)
<doi:10.1037/met0000165>. Results can be summarized, extracted with
standard methods such as summary(), coef() and confint(), and plotted.
