Note: Total effects is the sum of direct and indirect effects

Note: Indirect effects are the product of the regression coefficients leading to the outcome. For example for organizational context, context predicts attitudes and attitudes predicts enrollment. The indirect effect of context on enrollment equals the product of the two regression coefficients (From Figure 3)
