How could I perform mediation analaysis with multiple mediators (UNCORRELATED WITH EACH OTHER) with the package "mediation" #61

As title.

Hi, I know there is a function mediations() to perform "multiple" mediation models, and each of them is with a single mediator.

However, if I want to perform a mediaiton model with multiple mediators (like multiple mechanisms in a model, and they are uncorrelated with each other), how could I do that in this package? Thanks!

If you are sure they are causal unrelated just do the regular mediation analysis on each.

See our APSR article for a heuristic overview.
