SAS programs, 3/8/2011

We will employ four new SAS programs to illustrate continuous interactions.
  • First, we will calculate means for centering.
  • Next, we will consider the regression with a continuous interaction.
  • We will observe the importance of centering.
  • We will calculate quartiles to help us understand the nature of the interaction.
  • Finally, we will dummy code the quartiles as another way to help us understand what's going on with the continuous interaction.
