Table 2.
Indirect effects and 95% confidence intervals for model 3.
| Model pathways | Estimated | 95% CI | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Lower | Upper | ||
| RFP → RA → LS | 0.21 | 0.13 | 0.28 |
| AFP → RA → LS | 0.17 | 0.09 | 0.25 |
| RFP → IA → LS | 0.12 | 0.05 | 0.19 |
| AFP → IA → LS | −0.16 | −0.23 | −0.08 |
| β(RA-IA) = (total indirect effect of RA) − (total indirect effect of IA) | 0.61 | 0.13 | 1.11 |
RFP, reciprocal filial piety; AFP, authoritarian filial piety; IA, individuating autonomy; RA, relating autonomy; LS, life satisfaction.
We used the Method of Auxiliary Variable to examine β(RA-IA), in which we could only get the unstandardized coefficients. The estimated indirect effects in this table were all standardized coefficients except β(RA-IA).
