[Mediation-information] Question about the Mediation Package

[Kosuke Imai]

Well, you should thank my coauthors, Dustin and Teppei, who are doing the heavy lifting here!  They should be able to give you the ETD or a pre-release version of the software.

Best,

I don't have an urgent need for the package, and my interest was simply for the sake of learning (and practicing with a few data sets). Could you kindly tell me whether you have an estimated date of release for the package? Cheers, Peter

I am looking for an R package that could handle moderated mediation (Preacher & Hayes, 2008; Edwards and Lambert, 2007), and the closest that I came across to is your package, Mediation. I went through the documentation but wasn't sure if the package could handle moderated mediation. Could you tell me whether this package is suitable to test different models of moderated mediation as outlined by Preacher & Hayes? I am a novice at R so any insight would be appreciated!
