报告摘要:Mediation analysis is a pivotal tool for inferring causal mechanisms in social science and related areas. Traditional ordinary least squares inference is highly sensitive to non-normal errors. Robust alternatives, like least absolute deviation and Huber methods, assume symmetric error distributions and often suffer significant efficiency loss. In this paper, we propose a semiparametric efficient indirect mediation effect estimator (SEIMEE) within the framework of maximum profile likelihood. Without requiring prior error assumptions, SEIMEE automatically captures the underlying data characteristics and asymptotically achieves oracle efficiency. Based on our new estimation framework, we propose the SEIMEE difference and product estimators for the indirect effect and establish the asymptotic distribution for the product estimator. A nonparametric percentile (PRCT) and a bias-corrected (BC) bootstrap procedure are developed to construct robust confidence intervals. To implement our kernel-based methodology, we propose a data-driven bandwidth selection strategy and a stable iterative alternating algorithm. Finite-sample simulation studies demonstrate that the proposed method exhibits superior performance in terms of mean squared error, type I error rates, and statistical power compared to existing methods in most cases. Finally, the effectiveness and practical utility of the proposed method are further validated through real data analysis.
