abstract: We implement parametric and non parametric mediation analysis. This package
  performs the methods and suggestions in Imai, Keele and Yamamoto (2010) <DOI:10.1214/10-STS321>,
  Imai, Keele and Tingley (2010) <DOI:10.1037/a0020761>, Imai, Tingley and Yamamoto
  (2013) <DOI:10.1111/j.1467-985X.2012.01032.x>, Imai and Yamamoto (2013) <DOI:10.1093/pan/mps040>
  and Yamamoto (2013) <http://web.mit.edu/teppei/www/research/IVmediate.pdf>. In addition
  to the estimation of causal mediation effects, the software also allows researchers
  to conduct sensitivity analysis for certain parametric models.
