Q6. What is the procedure used to compare the mean effect sizes of categorical variables?
in accord with the recommendation by Aguinis, Sturman, and Pierce (2008) for analysis of the moderating effect of categorical variables in the absence of strong theory-based hypotheses, the authors used the Hunter and Schmidt (2004) procedure in which the mean effect sizes are compared across groups using a t statistic.
Q7. What is the reason for the age-related motives of blue-collar workers?
