Figure 1.

The coefficient “a” is the effect of the independent variable SPS on dependent variable stigma; The coefficient “b” between the mediating variable FoP on dependent variable; The coefficient “c” is the total effect between SPS and stigma; The coefficient “c’” is the direct effect between SPS and stigma without FoP.
