This successful book, now available in paperback, provides academics and researchers with a clear set of prescriptions for estimating, testing and probing interactions in regression models. Including the latest research in the area, such as Fuller's work on the corrected/constrained estimator, the book is appropriate for anyone who uses multiple regression to estimate models, or for those enrolled in courses on multivariate statistics.

Introduction

Interactions between Continuous Predictors in Multiple Regression

The Effects of Predictor Scaling on Coefficients of Regression Equations

Testing and Probing Three-Way Interactions

Structuring Regression Equations to Reflect Higher Order Relationships

Model and Effect Testing with Higher Order Terms

Interactions between Categorical and Continuous Variables

Reliability and Statistical Power

Conclusion

Some Contrasts Between ANOVA and MR in Practice

"The book would serve very well as a reference for applied researchers and methodologiests. . . . In particular, this would be an excellent reference for anyone who encounters a multivariable prediction problem and has reason to believe that either a nonlinear model or a model including a variable product term would be appropriate."

Adopting for Fall 2015/Spring 2016 - wonderful book on how to interpret interactions; very clear.

I received the book after the semester started so I was unable to incorporate the textbook into the course for Spring 2015. I plan to add it to this course for Fall 2015 and Spring 2016, however.

I received an invoice for $113.22 for the book and will pay it, but I was surprised that I had to pay for an instructor review copy since I did not have to pay for a review copy for the Sage Field book that I adopted for the course.
