Table 2 summarizes the results for the multiple mediator analysis
indicating the path coefficients and confidence intervals for each effect being tested in the model
The results show significant indirect mediating effects for positive and negative affect
It should be noted that the pathways described by these mediators fully accounted for the relation between EI and life satisfaction given that the pathway for the direct effect in this analysis was not statistically significant
Taken together
results showed that greater EI was associated significantly with higher levels of positive affect and lower levels of negative affect
which
in turn
predicted higher levels of life satisfaction
