JSmediation

Description

A set of functions to conduct joint-significance tests for mediation analysis.

Details

The main functions of the JSmediation package follow an ⁠mdt_*⁠ pattern. ⁠mdt_*⁠ family functions allow you to conduct joint-significance tests for various mediation models (see Judd, Yzerbyt, & Muller, 2014; Muller, Judd, & Yzerbyt, 2005; Yzerbyt, Muller, Batailler, & Judd, 2018).

The syntax for ⁠mdt_*⁠ family functions is usually the same. The first argument is always a data frame (data) which is followed by the variable names involved in the model (e.g., DV, IV). Because ⁠mdt_*⁠ family functions use non-standard evaluation, these variable names must generally be specified unquoted.

⁠mdt_*⁠ family functions allow you to create an object of class "mediation_model" for which various methods are implemented. The add_index method computes the (moderated) indirect effect index using Monte Carlo for the different mediation models JSmediation offers.

See vignette("jsmediation") for a general introduction and overview of JSmediation.
