The mediation package in R returns results in which:

  • ACME = significant (positive)
  • ADE = significant (positive)
  • Total Effects = significant(positive)

Does this mean that there is a full mediation effect or partial?

This means there is partial mediation. If there is a nonzero direct effect (ADE), the effect of the main predictor does not pass entirely through the mediator.
