“…The "other" religious affiliation included Christianity, Judaism, Jainism, Zoroastrianism, and Buddhism. We conducted mediation analysis using the Sobel-Goodman (Sobel, 1986; UCLA: Statistical Consulting Group) and Karlson/Holm/Breen (Karlson and Holm, 2011) tests to determine if smoking status, health status, or educational attainment mediated the relationship between religiosity and BMI.…”

“…Note that because the bootstrap approach did not assume a particular sampling distribution for the indirect effect, there was no conventional distribution-based test statistic (e.g., t, z) to report. We used this bootstrap approach because it provides a more accurate and statistically powerful test of the significance of a mediated effect than the usual Sobel test (Sobel, 1982(Sobel, , 1986. Details on the bootstrap approach together with worked examples can be found in Shrout and Bolger (2002).…”

Previous fieldwork has suggested that visible social support can entail an emotional cost and that a supportive act is most effective when it is accomplished either (a) outside of recipients' awareness or (b) within their awareness but with sufficient subtlety that they do not interpret it as support. To investigate the latter phenomenon, the authors conducted 3 experiments in which female participants were led to expect a stressful speech task and a confederate peer provided support in such a way that it was either visible or invisible (N ϭ 257). Invisible support (practical and emotional) reduced emotional reactivity relative to visible and no support. Visible support was either ineffective or it exacerbated reactivity. Explanatory analyses indicated that support was effective when it avoided communicating a sense of inefficacy to recipients.

“…Bootstrapping has been recommended when multivariate normality cannot be assumed, which is typically true with small sample sizes. Multivariate normality is especially important when multiple mediators are being included in determining indirect effects in path analysis models using the delta method (Preacher & Hayes, 2008;Sobel, 1982Sobel, , 1986. In this case, we had two mediators:…”
