Dear Clarify listers,
I have a model including indirect effects:
A. y1=f(x1, x2, y2, y3)
B. y2=f(x1, x2)
C. y3=f(x1, x2)
I am using the CLARIFY plugin in Stata to predict the effect of x1 on y1. Clarify is very useful to predict the outcome of each equation individually with the simqi command, but as far as I understand it this command does not assess the role of indirect effects.
Can Clarify make a prediction considering the individual direct effect of x1 on y1 as well as the indirect effect of x1 on y1 through y2 and y3? Can it also calculate the total effect of x1 on y1?
Any help in this regard would be greatly appreciated.
Best regards,
