Indirect Effects of the Coping Power Intervention on Latent Suicidal Thoughts and Behaviors: an Integrative Data Analysis

paths and mediation effects differed when using standard parametric approaches for inference versus bias-corrected percentile bootstrapping. These differences highlight cautions regarding statistical inference for prevention researchers who study highly skewed zero-inflated latent variables such as STBs. Findings are discussed in light of (a) earlier etiological research on biological sex-specificity in the pathways to early risk for suicide and (b) how variation in program components of CP and its adaptations may reduce STB risk across different populations, age groups, and modes of program delivery.

Abstract

paths and mediation effects differed when using standard parametric approaches for inference versus bias-corrected percentile bootstrapping. These differences highlight cautions regarding statistical inference for prevention researchers who study highly skewed zero-inflated latent variables such as STBs. Findings are discussed in light of (a) earlier etiological research on biological sex-specificity in the pathways to early risk for suicide and (b) how variation in program components of CP and its adaptations may reduce STB risk across different populations, age groups, and modes of program delivery.
