Mediation analysis estimates when assuming there is no exposure-mediator interaction

Effect	Estimate	95% CI
CDE (m)	0.47	(0.25, 0.69)
NDE	0.47	(0.25, 0.69)
NIE	0.02	(−0.02, 0.06)
TE	0.49	(0.27, 0.71)
PM	0.04	(−0.05, 0.13)

Abbreviations. CDE: controlled direct effect. NDE: natural direct effect. NIE: natural indirect effect. TE: total effect. PM: proportion mediated.

CDE is measured at m = 0.41 (mean level of mediator). All effects are conditional on age = 45, positive coping strategy score = 2.11 and negative coping strategy score = 0.93, highest education level = 4.
