In this article, we attempt to distinguish between the properties of moderator and mediator variables
at a number of levels. First, we seek to make theorists and researchers aware of the importance of
not using the terms moderator and mediator interchangeably by carefully elaborating, both conceptually
and strategically, the many ways in which moderators and mediators differ. We then go beyond
this largely pedagogical function and delineate the conceptual and strategic implications of making
use of such distinctions with regard to a wide range of phenomena, including control and stress,
attitudes, and personality traits. We also provide a specific compendium of analytic procedures appropriate
for making the most effective use of the moderator and mediator distinction, both separately
and in terms of a broader causal system that includes both moderators and mediators.
