Mediation model from Study 3 testing whether habitually accepting one’s mental experiences (i.e., emotions and thoughts) predicts greater psychological health (a composite of psychological well-being, life satisfaction, depressive symptoms and anxiety symptoms) via less negative emotion (and not via positive emotion) experienced during daily stressors. Each indirect effect was tested independently. The indirect effect through negative emotion was significant, B = .19, SE = .03, CI95 [0.13, 0.26], and the indirect effect through positive emotion was not, B = .01, SE = .01 CI95 [−0.01, 0.02]. The unstandardized multi-level modeling coefficients (Bs) are shown for each link. The Bs for the paths where both acceptance and the mediator (either negative or positive emotion during daily stressors) were included simultaneously within the model are shown in parentheses.
