Structural model assessment (mediation paths): chain indirect effects

Chain indirect relationship	Effect type	Indirect β (without controls)	t value	p value	Indirect β (with controls)	t value	p value	Decision
GS → DKM → ERM → P	Chain mediation	0,129	2,390	0,017	0,126	2,345	0,019	Supported
GS → GP → ERM → P	Chain mediation	0,053	1,596	0,110	0,051	1,570	0,116	Rejected

Note(s):

Inclusion of control variables (firm size, firm maturity) did not alter the pattern of chain mediation effects, confirming the robustness of the results
