Note. Standardized coefficients are reported for all effects. All coefficients and standard errors for the indirect effects were estimated using the MODEL INDIRECT command in Mplus Version 4.2. Mplus implements indirect effects that are the product of the two regression coefficients, that is, a multiplied by b. The delta method was used to calculate standard errors of the indirect effects.
