more easily the model is unfit. The samples of the research are up to 967 so that
chi-square(

KS, and IM is proved to have a good model data-fit.

5. KS, though with a weak mediation effect, is proved a mediator variable.
To judge whether KS is a mediator variable between KOC and IM, the mediator
variable model ( Bagozzi and Yi 1988 ) is used in this study (see Fig. 3 ). First, Route
A coefficient should reach the significant level. Second, Route B coefficient should
