    Social Science Experts HELP!!!

    Trying to explain the Mediation Model to someone who is stupid.


    A is related to B.
    A is related to C.
    C is related to B.
    C is found to explain a significant percentage of the relationship between A and B.
    C is the Mediator.

    An intervention is meant to Increase Positive Parenting which in turn will increase positive Child Social Competence.

    So The Intervention is Related to Child SOcial Competence, but the relationship is explained by an INcrease in Positive Parenting.

    Does anyone disagree with this?

    Because this classmate in a group project doesn't, and I'm ready to be angry.

    "The choices we discern as having been made in the Constitutional Convention impose burdens on governmental proceses that often seem clumsy, inefficient, even unworkable, but those hard choices were consciously made by men who had lived under a form of government that permitted arbitrary governmental acts to go unchecked." INS v. Chadha, 462 U.S. 919 (1983) (Burger, C.J.)

    all I know bro is ideally, the mediator ought to be a disinterested third party.

    Your model involves a mediator w/a a conflict of interest. Thus, I don't see how he/she can effectively facilitate conflict resolution.
    "Discourage litigation. Persuade your neighbors to compromise whenever they can. Point out to them how the nominal winner is often a real loser; in fees, expenses and waste of time." -- Abraham Lincoln, (1809-1865) Lawyer and President who saved the United States.

    "Without opportunities on the part of the poor to obtain expert legal advice, it is idle to talk of equality before the law"-- Justice Chas. Evans Hughes
