Objective: To achieve the grand challenge goal of unleashing power prevention, we must determine how and under what conditions an intervention leads to desired outcomes. These questions remain largely unknown partly due analytical challenges involving testing mediation moderation hypotheses with multiple dependent variables in nested data.
