Mediation Analysis in a Latent Growth Curve Modeling Framework

The effects of service supply on perceived value proposition under different levels of customer involvement

“…According to these critics, the step of testing for total effects is not a necessary condition for mediation. Instead, the critical aspect is the test of the indirect effect itself (Soest & Hagtvet, 2011;Zhao et al, 2010). To the extent that the direct effect of service supply on relational value may be longitudinal, but which is not formally hypothesized in this study, the following hypotheses would support a full mediation model, which is also referred to as indirect-only mediation by Zhao et al (2010).…”

“…However, many recent studies argue that misapplication of the Baron-Kenny procedure is causing many authors to ignore important aspects of theory building (e.g. Rucker, Preacher, Tormala, & Petty, 2011;Soest & Hagtvet, 2011;Zhao, Lynch, & Chen, 2010). According to these critics, the step of testing for total effects is not a necessary condition for mediation.…”

Mediated Effects with the Parallel Process Latent Growth Model: An Evaluation of Methods for Testing Mediation in the Presence of Nonnormal Data

“…The path coefficient b represents the impact of the growth rate of M on the growth rate of Y, controlling for the effects of X and the random intercepts of M and the product of two path coefficients (i.e., a × b) is the mediated effect. Path coefficient c is the direct effect of X on Y controlling random intercept and slopes of M (Cheong, 2011;von Soest & Hagtvet, 2011). Cheong (2011) investigated the accuracy of the parameter and standard error estimates and the statistical power of the mediated effect using a PP-LGM.…”

“…Vi kommer tilbake til videre fortolkninger under gjennomgangen av CLM-modellen nedenfor. I forlengelsen av modellen i figur 3 er det mulig å tenke seg indirekte og modererende virkninger av kjønn over karriereløpet (Cheong et al, 2003;Selig & Preacher, 2009;von Soest & Hagtvet, 2011). Poenget angår vår hypotese 4, om mulige kompenserende virkninger for kvinnelige ledere; man kan spørre om det handicap som kvinnelige ledere pådrar seg i starten blir heftende ved dem; om forskjellene forsterkes seinere, eller om de blir utjevnet?…”
