When the independent variable X and moderator M are dichotomous or continuous, the practice of testing a linear moderation hypothesis using regression analysis by including the product of X and M in a model of
Methods for Handling Variable Interactions in Linear Regression The earliest approach to correct for variable interactions was to use factorial designs to separate “main” effects between the variables from effects among the variables (variable interaction). The combined interaction effect, termed asC, ...
The main effect is still telling you if there is an overall effect of that variable after accounting for other variables in the model. But in regression, adding interaction terms makes the coefficients of the lower order terms conditional effects, not main effects. That means that the effect ...

Under the logistic regression framework, we propose a forward-backward method, SODA, for variable selection with both main and quadratic interaction terms. In the forward stage, SODA adds in predictors that have significant overall effects, whereas in the backward stage SODA removes unimportant terms...

This plot shows the effect of changing one variable as the other predictor variable is held constant. In this example, the last figure shows the response variable, blood pressure, as a function of weight, when the variable sex is fixed at males and females. The lines for males and females...
When you include an interaction term in a regression model and observe that one of the main effects becomes statistically insignificant, it suggests that the effect of that variable is conditional on the level of the other variable. In other words, the effect of the main variable is not consis...
It is for example convenient to standardize with respect to the exogenous variables which as in regular regression means that we multiply a coefficient by the standard deviation of the exogenous variable in question. In this case, a unit change in the exogenous variable is a 1 SD change in ...
