Procedures for examining whether treatment effects on an outcome are mediated and/or moderated have
been well developed and are routinely applied. The mediation question focuses on the intervening
mechanism that produces the treatment effect. The moderation question focuses on factors that affect the
magnitude of the treatment effect. It is important to note that these two processes may be combined in
informative ways, such that moderation is mediated or mediation is moderated. Although some prior
literature has discussed these possibilities, their exact definitions and analytic procedures have not been
completely articulated. The purpose of this article is to define precisely both mediated moderation and
moderated mediation and provide analytic strategies for assessing each.
