Figure 2. — Mediational model for research self-efficacy (sophomore year). The model demonstrates that, consistent with the expectations of mediation, the exogenous predictor (sense of community) significantly predicts both the outcome (research self-efficacy; beta = 0.26, p < 0.01) and the proposed mediator (perceived program benefit; beta = 0.38, p < 0.01). Additionally, the proposed mediator significantly predicts the outcome (beta = 0.33, p < 0.01). Furthermore, the relation between sense of community and research self-efficacy no longer exists in the presence of perceived program benefit (beta = 0.12, ns).
