Actually it is hypothesis of a research paper: The positive relationship between ethical leadership and group learning behavior is partially mediated by justice climate and peer justice, respectively. But from result, justice climate was not significantly related to group learning (b = -0.03, ns). then which type of mediation it will be?
Hi,
This question sounds similar to one I have.
From what ive read, the “a” path from x to m, and the “b” path from m to y, do not necessarily need to be significant to demonstrate mediation (See Hayes & Rockwood, 2016, in Behaviour Research & Therapy, p. 5 starting at “ by contemporary thinking”). I may be interpreting incorrectly.
Did you find a satisfactory answer to this question? Help would be appreciated if so!
If IV is insignificant through a mediating variable with DV is there is mediation?
