Social Sciences - Psychology
Spanish term or phrase: mediar
Really not sure of the meaning of "mediar" here.

En el terreno emocional, es indiscutible la utilidad de las medidas de auto-informe en comparación con las medidas de ejecución (Goldenberg, Matheson & Mantler, 2006) ya que proporcionan información sobre experiencias y creencias internas y evalúan procesos de conciencia relacionados con el pensamiento emocional (Extremera & Fernández-Berrocal, 2004), que pueden estar ***mediando*** el desempeño real de las habilidades emocionales.
