| Factor | path ai | path bi | aibi | 95% CI* |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Life-space mobility | 0.36 | 0.12 | 0.04 | 0.02, 0.08 |
| Wheelchair skills | 0.63 | 0.04 | 0.03 | −0.05, 0.10 |
| Participation limitations | 0.29 | 0.23 | 0.07 | 0.02, 0.13 |
| Total mediated effect | 0.14 | 0.04, 0.24 | ||
| Proportion of the direct effect accounted for by the mediators | 0.14/0.18 = 0.78 | |||
| adj R2 | 55.0% | |||
1000 bootstrap samples; CI = confidence interval path ai = the associations between self-efficacy and the mediators; path bi = the associations between the mediators and participation frequency; aibi = the magnitude of each mediated effect.
