I am testing the following mediation model: MODEL: ATT_SUIC !rare binary outcome ON T_OVRALL (B1)!count mediator GLS_G_D (B2) BI_D (B3) PAN_D (B4) QQ_D (B5) !B2-B5 dummy-coded exposure CISMEN_D (B6) TRANS_D (B7) !B6-B7 dummy-coded moderator MZ1 (B8) MZ2 (B9) DSBLTY (B10) RACE (B11) SAFETY (B12) LFDPRSSN (B13); !B10-B13 controls T_OVRALL ON GLS_G_D (G1) BI_D (G2) PAN_D (G3) QQ_D (G4) CISMEN_D (G5) TRANS_D (G6) DSBLTY (G7) RACE (G8) SAFETY (G9) LFDPRSSN (G10); [T_OVRALL] (G0); Am I calculating the odds ratio effects correctly? MODEL CONSTRAINT: NEW (TNIE PNDE_GLS PNDE_BI PNDE_PAN PNDE_QQ); TNIE = EXP((B1*G1 + B8*G1*1 + B9*G1*1) + (B1*G1 + B8*G2*1 + B9*G2*1) + (B1*G1 + B8*G3*1 + B9*G3*1) + (B1*G1 + B8*G4*1 + B9*G4*1)); PNDE_GLS = EXP((B2); PNDE_BI = EXP(B3); PNDE_PAN = EXP(B4); PNDE_QQ = EXP(B5); Thank you. |

A count variable as a mediator is not well-defined; there is no research to draw on for that case. Mplus treats it as count for the equation where it is the DV but as continuous in the equation where it is the predictor (IV). Indirect effects are therefore not defined. You can try to instead treat the count variable as categorical. |
