Install sgmediation

• 1. First, check whether it is already installed. type 'sgmediation'. If it says "command sgmediation is unrecognized" then you do need to install it. Otherwise, you're done -- you can skip the following steps.

  2. locate your ado folder. In Stata, type 'sysdir'. Look at the path for "plus". Typically this is "c:\ado\plus". Outside of Stata, navigate to this folder. If it doesn't exist, create it.

  3. download the following two files to that folder:

  4. sgmediation.ado

  5. sgmediation.hlp
