Craig

I suggest you consider -medeff- or -khb- for categorical outcome variables
(both are user-written programs [findit medeff, findit khb].

I am not sure if either program works with -svy-, however both approaches
allow for pweights (though I am not sure how that will impact the results). 

In a paper that Kristian Karlson and I currently writing, we ran large scale
simulations to test the accuracy of several mediation modeling approaches.
Both of these programs (-medeff and -khb-) recover the true mediation
effects with the highest accuracy while binary_mediation provided rather
inaccurate results.

I hope this helps

Hi

I want to do a mediation analysis using survey data.  I've previously used
the binary_mediation' command, but this doesn't allow the prefix 'svy:'. 
Can anyone advise on how I can do a mediation analysis with prefix 'svy:'
when the outcome variable is dichotomous?

Thanks

Craig Morgan
