Several studies have stressed the importance of simultaneously estimating interaction and quadratic effects in multiple regression analyses, even if theory only suggests an interaction effect should be present. Specifically, past studies suggested that failing to simultaneously include quadratic effects when testing for interaction effects could…

A convenient, two-stage general linear regression approach to analysis of variance is described for use in univariate or multivariate designs involving one repeated measurement factor and one or more independent classification factors. A brief illustrative example is provided. (Author)

A convention commonly used to describe interaction effects within moderated regression frameworks was examined through logical exposition and a Monte Carlo approach to simulate various moderator conditions. Results, which indicate that the convention may lead to incorrect inferences, are discussed in terms of interpreting moderator effects. (SLD)

Develops a testing procedure based on a model including treatment effects on residual variances. (Author/RC)
