Bias-corrected bootstrapped 95% confidence intervals for the monotonic mediation model for child adaptation as a function of family functioning as mediated by difficulty controlling for having Crohn’s disease or a bowel disorder and as moderated by having diabetes with independent omitted factors or errors
