Moderation with a dummy moderator and a multicategorical moderator:

• Variable transformation
• Dummy coding (0 and 1) for the moderator variable
•  k-1 dummy variables from the original categorical variable (Baseline category (0))
• Testing a moderation with a dummy moderator and a multicategorical moderator using PROCESS.

o      How to interpret the interaction when the moderator is a dummy variable

o      Conditional effects

o      Plotting interaction effect

o      Reporting main results in a paper.

Moderação com moderadora quantitativa (conclusão)

• Diagnóstico de interação - leitura descritiva e inferencial (definição das hipóteses estatísticas)
• Leitura dos efeitos condicionados - relação entre X e Y nos diferentes níveis da moderadora
• Reportar esses efeitos em paper, tese, ...
• Interpretação de diferentes exemplos para diagnosticar diferentes tipos de moderadoras.
