本文提供了一个替代框架，评估调解的关系。从这个角度来看，一个中介过程是一个连锁反应，从一个独立变量开始，影响一个中介，反过来又影响一个结果。这里提供的调解的定义，提出的阶段序列，国家建立调解的三个条件：（a）独立变量影响的概率序列没有调解员到调解员合作的结果;（B）独立变量影响的概率过渡到调解员阶段;（c）调解员影响的概率过渡到结果阶段的每一个水平的独立变量。这个中介的定义与Baron和Kenny（1986），Judd和Kenny（1981）以及Kenny，Kashy和Bolger（1997）中讨论的连续变量的中介定义进行了比较和对比。本文提出的定义强调调解的个体内、时间顺序的性质。
The present article provides an alternative framework for evaluating mediated relationships. From this perspective, a mediated process is a chain reaction, beginning with an independent variable that affects a mediator that in turn affects an outcome. The definition of mediation offered here, presented for stage sequences, states three conditions for establishing mediation: (a) the independent variable affects the probability of the sequence no mediator to mediator Co outcome; (b) the independent variable affects the probability of a transition into the mediator stage; (c) the mediator affects the probability of a transition into the outcome stage at every level of the independent variable. This definition of mediation is compared and contrasted with the well-known definition of mediation for continuous variables discussed in Baron and Kenny(1986), Judd and Kenny (1981), and Kenny, Kashy, and Bolger (1997). The definition presented in this article emphasizes the intraindividual, time-ordered nature of mediation.
