Hello everyone! I'm using SAS Studio. I'm writing my master thesis and I'm doing some mediation analysis with time-dependent exposure and mediator. The code I'm using is the one at the end of the post and when running it, it produces the estimates of direct, indirect and total effects saved in a dataset as follows: DIRECT INDIRECT TOTAL 0.200344234 -0.002250784 0.1980934497 At this point what I have left to calculate are BOOTSTRAP CONFIDENCE INTERVALS fore those effects estimates. The only problem is that I've never done bootstrap on SAS iterating such a long code and saving at the end in the same dataset all the estimates and use that as a distribution to get the 5th and 95th percentile as my confidence boundaries. I was wondering if anyone had any idea on how I can do that or somewhere I can find this information. Many thanks, Sara * TIME-DEPENDENCE ;
