Modeling mediational paths b and c’ in a longitudinal multilevel model. The coefficient for the mediational path b reflects the fixed effect of the prediction from each measurement of the mediator (M) to each outcome (Y). c’ is the fixed effect of treatment condition (X) predicting outcome (Y). Subscripts represent the month at which measures were taken from baseline at month 0. The stability and cross-lagged paths are represented by a single parameter estimate each in the models. Fixed effects for age and assessment month were also included in each model.
