Very encouraging comments that has made mediation studies explorable easy in social sciences

[@noumaniqbal1810]

Well explained:)

[@researchandanalysis4701]

Thank you Nouman.

[@novi2294]

Thanks for the tutorial video, it's really helpful! I had a question, how to using quadratic variable (ex: gdp^2) in Macros PROCESS? Thank you

[@HamidAli-pv6xw]

👍

[@giovannistickdorn7000]

Great video and very well explained. I understood that there are two different methods of testing a mediation analyses. What I did not understand is when to use which one. What are the pros and cons of each method.

[@researchandanalysis4701]

Both are correct, but through Process Macro is contemporary method.

[@mimnun1]

If the dependent variable is in interval or ratio scale, can We use process macro?

[@Ezgiii0108]

How do you deal with control variables here? Do you have to insert the control variables as block 1 every time?

[@researchandanalysis4701]

Yeah, exactly.

[@laveniacandra2741]

Thanks for the explanation, but can I ask which one should I use I have 3 independent variables, one mediating variable, and one dependent variable, the multiple linear regression or the PROCESS? and if I use the process one, do I need to repeat 3 times as i have 3 IVs? Thank you

[@researchandanalysis4701]

In your case, if you want to use SPSS, then it will be better to use Process. Personally i prefer smart-PLS for such models.

[@jawadkhan-zs7lq]

Please interpret the results of mediation. How we will know that there is mediation? Partial / Full mediation /No mediation. Please explain in details. Thank you.

[@researchandanalysis4701]

Dear Jawad. Thank you for your comment. I will try to cover it in upcoming videos.

[@lguarena]

Thank you, very helpful. How would adding covariates change how you do the analysis in SPSS? Would you use Process, and just add the covariates in the "Covariates" section? Would this change any of the Options and Model number specifiations selected? Thanks in advance.

[@jodie7785]

Hi, thanks for explaining. But what does it mean when you say there is no zero when looking at mediation results? I have a minus number and a positive number for my bootLLCI and BootULCI? Thanks!

[@researchandanalysis4701]

If you have one negative and one positive number for your interval, then it mean Zero is there in the interval and we will conclude that the impact is insignificant. To be significant, both LLCI and ULCI should be positive or both should be negative.

@@researchandanalysis4701 thanks so much! I understand now. Your video has helped a lot

[@researchandanalysis4701]

@@jodie7785 My pleasure.

[@franklynmanuel]

The Sobel test option is not available now in the process macro. does it automatically included in the macro itself

[@researchandanalysis4701]

Actually it is no more required.

[@someshlaljoshi8066]

@@researchandanalysis4701 why so? can u please explain? is it because we can know it from ULCI and LLCI?

[@reshamchawla8721]

can we still conduct mediation analysis if our correlations are insignificant?

[@maushmichakraborty7445]

Please explain moderation model also

[@user-hg2vb2qs5e]

How to know which independent variables can be included in mediation analysis?

[@researchandanalysis4701]

It is theory and literature that guide you to take a variable as mediator.

[@ladydianelacaran1605]

What are the three conditions of Hayes and preacher? Pls answer me huhu

[@readers9721]

If it partially mediates the relationship of iv and dv, the hypothesis is still accepted?

[@researchandanalysis4701]

yeah, the hypothesis will be still considered as approved.
