I have a multiple mediator model, I am using SEM method in AMOS.
It provides you total indirect effect, but I wanted effect of each mediator in this model.
Based on the post by Dr. Konrad Kulikowski, I was able to calculate the indirect effect (unstandardized coefficient) with its CI and p values for each M1, M2, and M3 using User- Defined Estimands.

But since I am reporting standardized coefficient for total, direct and total indirect effect, I wanted to know that if there is any way I can calculate standardized coefficient for individual mediators with its CI and p-value.
Thanks for your time.
I recommend these tutorials

Cristian Ramos-Vera Thank you bud.
But Amos gives you the significance of Total indirect effect, not individual indirect effect.
But if you check the post by Dr. Kulikowski post-https://www.researchgate.net/post/How_to_estimate_specific_indirect_effect_in_SPSS_AMOS_mediation_model
You can actually estimate the individual mediator's indirect effect. I just was not sure how to get standardized coefficients or not. But he replied it is possible.
To get the standardized coefficient (β) of a specific indirect effect, say, path A x path B, you can just multiply the β of path A and path B, then you'll have the β for the indirect effect. CR, which is t-value, is β/standard error. P-value can be obtained automatically from a section under user-defined estimands' estimates/bootstrap called "bias-corrected percentile method."
