Table 3 Significant effects of the mediation analyses (Study 1)
Step 1: Effect of scenario condition on appreciation measures | |
|---|---|
General appreciation scale | B = .60, SE = .11, p < .001 |
Percentage that health insurance should compensate | B = .17, SE = .63, p = .01 |
Allocation of money to Lytgens’ intervention/PSAs | B = .60, SE = .30, p = .05 |
Step 2: Effect of scenario condition on explanatory variables | |
Urgency to introduce method | B = .61, SE = .18, p = .001 |
Certainty of attribution | |
(Professor Lytgens is the person who saves lives) | B = .77, SE = .23, p = .001 |
Step 3: Effect of significant explanatory variables on significant appreciation measures while controlling for scenario condition | |
General appreciation scale | |
-Urgency to introduce the method | B = .29, SE = .07, p < .001 |
Percentage that health insurance should compensate | |
-Urgency to introduce the method | B = 2.06, SE = .33, p < .001 |
Step 4: Effect of scenario condition on significant appreciation measures while controlling for significant explanatory variables | |
General appreciation scale | B = .41, SE = .12, p = .001 |
Percentage that health insurance should compensate | B = .32, SE = .58, p = n.s. |
