Causal Mediation Analysis in Presence of Multiple Mediators Uncausally Related

Estimates key quantities in causal mediation analysis - including average causal mediation effects (indirect effects), average direct effects, total effects, and proportions mediated - in the presence of multiple uncausally related mediators. Methods are described by Jerolon et al., (2021) and extended to accommodate survival outcomes as described by Domingo-Relloso et al., (2024) .

multimediate

This package is based on the work presented in A. Jérolon et al., Causal mediation analysis in presence of multiple mediators uncausally related.

The work allowing multiple mediation analyzes with a survival outcome was largely developed with Arce Domingo-Relloso. This work is presented in Domingo-Relloso et al., Causal mediation for uncausally related mediators in the context of survival analysis.
