Path diagram of cross-lagged panel mediation model (sample A only) testing the prospective effect of the predictor (reappraisal) on change in the outcome (health behaviors or mental health) via change in the mediator (emotions). White boxes with solid outlines indicate the time points that were included in the weekly models. White boxes with dashed outlines indicate time points that were included in the monthly models. Note that to estimate a single indirect effect, we constrained a1 and a2 to be equal and b1 and b2 to be equal. T = time.
