Mediation and Moderation

An intermediate 3-day course introducing and practicing the concepts of Mediation and Moderation. In many scientific fields research questions have become more complex. Researchers are no longer simply interested in if one variable (X) is related to another (Y). Instead, research questions such as: “Why is X related to Y?” and “When is X related to Y?” abound. This course addresses methods to test why two variables are related (mediation) and when two variables are related (moderation).
