Hello,
I'm hoping someone can help me. I am conducting research for my thesis looking at relationship between social connectedness (IV), and diabetes distress, diabetes self-management and perceived competence (DVs). All are continuous variables measured on self-report likert scale questionnaires.
I am interested in understanding how social connectedness influences outcomes and struggling with the best way to do this. At first I thought MANOVA however due to splitting my data set into high vs low social connectedness I would lose all the middle data which would affect my sample size quite a bit.
Would linear regression be the best test to use to analyse?
Thanks
