For those of you who would like to go directly to the parts of the site
that will help you with moderation or mediation, click on one of the
buttons below. For those of you who are new to the topics of moderation
and mediation, you may wish to gain a bit of background on these two
topics by staying in this part of the web-site. I will describe a bit
of the background on these topics, and then move on to give you an example
of each method. Here is a general map of this web-site to help you move

Introduction
This web-site was created to help visitors with questions about moderation
and mediation. In my teaching and research, I have found that:
1) moderation and mediation are increasingly used in state-of-the-art
statistical analyses of data; and
2) statistics textbooks do not do a good job of explaining these two
techniques. This leads to:
3) many students and even seasoned researchers to be very confused about
when and how to use these approaches.
My goal
in this web-site is to briefly describe the basics of each technique,
and then provide you access to two on-line programmes that I think will
be of significant assistance in the day-to-day utilization of moderation
and mediation.
