  • how do i iterprit medeff analtsis results

    Dear Stata listers
    I conducted a mediation analysis using medeff command continuous outcome continuous mediator


    medeff (regress M T x) (regress Y T M x), treat(T) mediate(M) sims(1000)

    Effect Mean [95% Conf. Interval]

    ACME 1.115486 -.3424334 2.783301
    Direct Effect 2.663043 .9861806 4.413925
    Total Effect 3.778528 2.704793 4.882627
    % of Tot Eff mediated .2964825 .2284646 .4124108

    then ran the sensitivity analysis :

    medsens (regress M T x) (regress Y T M x), treat(T) mediate(M) sims(1000)

    --------------------------------------------------------------
    Sensitivity results
    ----------------------------------------------------------------
    Rho at which ACME = 0 | .3454
    R^2_M*R^2_Y* at which ACME = 0: | .1193
    R^2_M~R^2_Y~ at which ACME = 0: | .0075
    ----------------------------------------------------------------

    My question is how do i interpret the results and how do I know if the mediation effect is significant?

    Many thnaks.
