Figure 2.

Results of path models for Studies 1 and 2 regarding the effects of the observing facet (A) and acting with awareness facet (B) on empathic concern (left) and perspective taking (right) through mediation variables. It should be noted that although this figure illustrates four intermediation models between facets of trait mindfulness and empathy, path analysis for each model conducted within the full model (Supplementary Figure 1). Each effect was standardized. Regarding direct effects, the left value on the center arrow indicates the effect without mediators and the right value of the arrow indicates effects after adding the mediators. ***p < 0.001; **p < 0.01; *p < 0.05; ^†p < 0.10; 95% CI = 95% confidential interval.
