IndirectCentralStd: Standardized Indirect Effect Centrality

Description

Standardized Indirect Effect Centrality

Usage

IndirectCentralStd(phi, sigma, delta_t, tol = 0.001)

Value

Returns an object of class ctmedmed which is a list with the following elements:

call

Function call.

args

Function arguments.

fun

Function used ("IndirectCentralStd").

output

A matrix of standardized indirect effect centrality.

Arguments

phi

Numeric matrix. The drift matrix (\(\boldsymbol{\Phi}\)). phi should have row and column names pertaining to the variables in the system.

sigma

Numeric matrix. The process noise covariance matrix (\(\boldsymbol{\Sigma}\)).

delta_t

Vector of positive numbers. Time interval (\(\Delta t\)).

tol

Numeric. Smallest possible time interval to allow.

Details

Standardized indirect effect centrality is the sum of all possible standardized indirect effects between different pairs of variables in which a specific variable serves as the only mediator.
