Hello All,

I have:

# 3 IVs: IV-A, IV-B, IV-C

# 2 MVs: MV-A, MV-B

# 1 DV: DV

The model is IV--> MV-A, MV-B --> DV, with parallel mediation by MV-A and MV-B.

I want to show that IV-A alone has a relationship with both MV-A and MV-B, while IV-B and IV-C have relation only with MV--B.

But I am unable to include all 3 IVs into one model because of high VIF (multicollinearity).

So is it possible for me to have and compare 3 separate models:

# IV-A --> MV-A, MV-B --> DV

# IV-B --> MV-A, MV-B --> DV

# IV-C --> MV-A, MV-B --> DV

All 3 models in one paper and say see, IV-A alone affects MV-A, not the other two?

Please advise.

Thanks in advance!
