Mediation Analysis Based on the Product Method
Functions for calculating the point and interval estimates of the natural indirect effect (NIE), total effect (TE), and mediation proportion (MP), based on the product approach. We perform the methods considered in Chao Cheng, Donna Spiegelman, and Fan Li. (2020+) <https://github.com/chaochengstat/chaochengstat.github.io/blob/master/manuscript_Epidemiologic_Methods.pdf>.
