Full model and results for the mediation model in which mean diffusivity (MD) of the right pyramidal fibers was examined as a mediator of prenatal exposure to high molecular weight phthalates and child internalizing problems. Standardized beta coefficients and standard errors in brackets are reported.
Note. a = the effect of the independent variable (high molecular weight phthalates) on the mediating variable (MD of the right pyramidal fibres); b = the effect of the mediating variable (MD of the right pyramidal fibres) on the dependent variable (child internalizing problems); c = direct effect; c’ =total effect.
*raw p-values < 0.05.
