Hypothesis	Effect^a	Mediator	Indirect effect^a	Total effect^a	Mediator effect^b
H2c	PsyCap → IIB	IC	0.138^***	0.477^***	Complementary
H3c	LAS → IIB	IC	0.114^***	0.436^***	Complementary
H3e	LAS → IIB	PsyCap	0.176^***	0.436^***	Complementary
H3f	LAS → IC	PsyCap	0.165^***	0.427^***	Complementary
^c	LAS → IIB	IC, PsyCap	0.362^***	0.436^***	Complementary

^a** p < 0.05, ***p < 0.01 are significance levels
^bThe effect between LAS and IIB is influenced by two mediators, IC (twice) and PsyCap, and we have a triple mediation analysis [65]. The total indirect effect is then the sum of the specific indirect effects
^cMediation by bootstrapping method [68]
