  <dc:title>Statistical Mediation Analysis for SEMs</dc:title>
  <dc:title>R package rmedsem version 1.0.0</dc:title>
  <dc:description>Conducts mediation analysis for structural equation models (SEM)
    estimated with 'lavaan', 'blavaan', 'cSEM', or 'modsem'. Implements
    the Baron and Kenny (1986) &lt;doi:10.1037/0022-3514.51.6.1173&gt; and
    Zhao, Lynch &amp; Chen (2010) &lt;doi:10.1086/651257&gt;
    approaches to determine the presence and type of mediation. Supports
    covariance-based SEM, partial least squares SEM, Bayesian SEM, and
    moderated mediation models. Reports indirect effects with standard
    errors from Sobel, Delta, Monte-Carlo, and bootstrap methods, along
    with effect size measures (RIT, RID).</dc:description>
