Details

The simple mediation model is given by $$ y_i = \delta_y + \dot{\tau} x_i + \beta m_i + \varepsilon_{y_{i}} $$

$$ m_i = \delta_m + \alpha x_i + \varepsilon_{m_{i}} $$

The parameters for the mean structure are $$ \boldsymbol{\theta}_{\text{mean structure}} = \left\{ \mu_x, \delta_m, \delta_y \right\} . $$

The parameters for the covariance structure are $$ \boldsymbol{\theta}_{\text{covariance structure}} = \left\{ \dot{\tau}, \beta, \alpha, \sigma_{x}^{2}, \sigma_{\varepsilon_{m}}^{2}, \sigma_{\varepsilon_{y}}^{2} \right\} . $$
