Research shows that parents' occupational prestige is a strong predictor of their adult offspring's occupational prestige.In 3-4 sentences,consider the potential importance of neighborhood-level occupational prestige (in terms of what are the typical levels of occupational prestige across the neighborhood),and offer two contrasting scenarios: one in which neighborhood occupational prestige could be tested as a confounding variable and one in which it could be tested as a mediator.In your answer,be sure you clearly identify the key difference between a confounding and a mediating variable and demonstrate how your examples illustrate that difference.
