   Question

   Below is part of the output of a mediation analysis with the Hayes Process.
   With high confidence, we can state that the indirect effect is higher than _______________ … and smaller than _______________ . This means that we have * … have evidence for a mediation effect in the population.

   

   
   
   1. TRUE: [1] = -0.0134 [2] = 0.0196 "3” = insufficient
   2. FALSE: [1] = 0.0036 [2] = 0.0081 "3” = adequate
   3. FALSE: [1] = -0.0134 [2] = 0.0036 "3” = insufficient
   4. FALSE: [1] = 0.0036 [2] = 0.0196 "3” = adequate
   5. FALSE: [1] = -0.0134 [2] = 0.0081 "3” = insufficient
   6. FALSE: [1] = 0.0081 [2] = 0.0196 \3” = adequate
   
   

   Solution

   This is the bootstrap confidence interval of the indirect effect (-0.0134, 0.0196). The 0 is in the confidence interval. Thus, we have insufficient evidence that a mediation effect exists in the population.

   
   
   1. True
   2. False
   3. False
   4. False
   5. False
   6. False
