Examining Mediator and Moderator Effect Using Rural Women HIV Study

Overview There is often confusion among students concerning the difference between a mediator variable and a moderator variable. In general, a given variable may be said to function as a mediator to the extent that it accounts for the relation between the predictor (independent variable) and the criterion (dependent variable). A moderator is a variable (M) whereby predictor variable (X) and criterion variable (Y) have a different relationship between each other at the various levels of M. The purpose of this paper is to examine the role of spiritual activities in the relationship between available social support and reason for missing medication, and tested if moderator or mediator effects influenced the relationship.
