Hi everybody,
I have a realy hard time interpreting hierarchical regression in general but I am reading a study now that really confuses me. Here is the output they present to you
http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2946618/table/T4/#TFN8
in the text it says that "in step1 (child sex) was significant in each equation." The sentence right afterwards though says: "For, Anxious, Vigilant Behavior (top of table 4)no significant interactions with sex were observed."
Anxious Vigilant Behavior is the DV as I understand, but don't those two sentences contradict each other?
Or do they just in my head. Can anybody tell me how I have to interpret that table please?
hope my questions are clear!
Thanks everybody
Marian
