In the NSAL-A path analysis (n = 1,170), bootstrapped indirect effects through self-esteem on grade repetition were statistically significant for both perceived stress and depressive symptoms; the printed standardized estimates were .029 and .030. Self-esteem was not a significant mediator for grades, suspensions, or expulsions.
"the bootstrap confidence intervals revealed statistically significant indirect mediated relations involving self-esteem and educational expectations (with estimated standardized effect sizes of .029 and .017, respectively)"
