    Question

    In a multiple regression model, two predictors (x1x_{1} and x2x_{2}) and the interaction between x1x_{1} and x2x_{2} included (x1*x2x_{1}*x_{2}). What is, after centering the predictors x1x_{1} and x2x_{2}, the correct interpretation of the regression coefficient (b1b_{1}) associated with the first predictor?


    1. FALSE: The estimated relationship between x1x_{1} and y given x2=0x_{2} = 0
    2. TRUE: The approximate relationship between x1x_{1} and y given an average score on x2x_{2}.
    3. FALSE: The estimated relationship between x1x_{1} and y given that x2x_{2} remains constant
    4. FALSE: The approximate relationship between x1x_{1} and y given a constant of 0
