The utility of evaluating mediation effects spans across research domains. The model facilitates investigation of underlying mechanisms of event timing and, as such, has the potential to help strengthen etiological research and inform intervention work that incorporates the evaluation of mediating variables. In order for the analyses to be maximally useful however, it is critical to employ methodology appropriate for the data under investigation. The purpose of this paper is to evaluate a regression-based approach to estimating mediation effects with discrete-time survival outcomes. We empirically evaluate the performance of the discrete-time survival mediation model in a statistical simulation study, and demonstrate that results are functionally equivalent to estimates garnered from a potential-outcomes framework. Simulation results indicate that parameter estimates of mediation in the model were statistically accurate and precise across the range of examined conditions. Type 1 error rates were also tolerable in the conditions studied. Adequate power to detect effects in the model, with binary X and continuous M variables, required effect sizes of the mediation paths to be medium or large. Possible extensions of the model are also considered.
