Control variables in mediation analysis
Hi, Just about anything can be bootstrapped, that's one of the things that makes bootstrapping great! Use e.g., the boot package, and bootstrap the product of the coefficients. Alternatively the mediation package (http://cran.r-project.org/web/packages/mediation/index.html) might help, though I'm not sure if it uses bootstrap. Best, Ista

Hi everyone,I would like to test a mediation model, that has several control variables. More specifically, I would like to test the indirect effect with bootstrapping. However, all the packages I have found so far (e.g. MBESS) only allow testing a simple mediation model (One independent, one mediator, one dependent) so that I cannot include any controls.
Can somebody help me?
