Values can be numbers or names, depending on the variable: • Numeric, e.g. weight • Counting, e.g. number of injuries • Ordinal, e.g. competitive level (values are numbers/names) • Nominal, e.g. sex (values are names When values are numbers, visualize the distribution of all values in stem and l ...

... Create a new variable happy that takes on the value 1 if the individual in question reports to be happy (’very’ or ’quite’) and 0 otherwise. Run a simple binary logistic regression with happy as dependent variable and (continous) age (x003) and the indivual’s houshold income (x047) as independent va ...

Interaction (statistics)
In statistics, an interaction may arise when considering the relationship among three or more variables, and describes a situation in which the simultaneous influence of two variables on a third is not additive. Most commonly, interactions are considered in the context of regression analyses.The presence of interactions can have important implications for the interpretation of statistical models. If two variables of interest interact, the relationship between each of the interacting variables and a third ""dependent variable"" depends on the value of the other interacting variable. In practice, this makes it more difficult to predict the consequences of changing the value of a variable, particularly if the variables it interacts with are hard to measure or difficult to control.The notion of ""interaction"" is closely related to that of ""moderation"" that is common in social and health science research: the interaction between an explanatory variable and an environmental variable suggests that the effect of the explanatory variable has been moderated or modified by the environmental variable.
