    Question

    A researcher wants to know the effect of the number of hours of FREE TIME per week on students’ sense of HELLOW (questionnaire with scale of 0-20). However, the researcher also has reason to expect that STUDY RESULTS (insufficient, sufficient) may have an impact on this relationship.

    In what way can the researcher best analyze whether the relationship between number of free hours per week and feeling of happiness is moderated by study results?


    1. FALSE: Multiple regression analysis using as predictors FREE TIME, STUDY RESULTS and the interaction term STUDY RESULTS×BELIEF.
    2. TRUE: Multiple regression analysis using as predictors FREE TIME, STUDY RESULTS and the interaction term STUDY RESULTS×FREE TIME.
    3. FALSE: Hierarchical regression analysis where in model 1 TRUE is included as a predictor and in model 2 STUDY RESULTS is added as a predictor.
    4. FALSE: Hierarchical regression analysis where in model 1 FREE TIME is included as a predictor and in model 2 STUDY RESULTS is added as a predictor.
