Dear Mike,

I fitted a saturated path model over 3 exogenous variables (MO, EO, LO), 1 mediator (INN) and 1 response variable (PERF), but the results are contradictory.

I want to determine the nature of the mediation role of INN (full mediation or partial mediation).

The analysis through direct effects are no consistent with the indirect effects.

I attach the dataset and the commands in R.

Is the model well specified? How can I interpret this output?

Thanks in advance for your attention, I really appreciate your opinion.

Dear Juan, The syntax and

Dear Juan,

The syntax and output look fine.

The direct and indirect effects do not need to be consistent. This is a standard mediation model. You may refer to the relevant books and papers on this topic.
