Description: Provides the ability to perform "Marginal Mediation"--mediation
wherein the indirect and direct effects are in terms of the average marginal effects
(Bartus, 2005, <https://EconPapers.repec.org/RePEc:tsj:stataj:v:5:y:2005:i:3:p:309-329>).
The style of the average marginal effects stems from Thomas Leeper's work on `margins`.
This framework allows the use of categorical mediators and outcomes with little change in interpretation
from the continuous mediators/outcomes. See <doi:10.13140/RG.2.2.18465.92001> for more details
on the method (peer reviewed articles forthcoming).
