Frequently Asked Questions (8)
Q2. What are the future works mentioned in the paper "Improving our understanding of moderation and mediation in strategic management research" ?
Moreover, improvements in methodological practices are slow, particularly among substantive compared to researchers interested in methodological issues ( Aguinis, Pierce, Bosco, & Muslin, 2009 ) because there is a ‘ ‘ scientific community ’ s persistence in the use of particular methods ’ ’ ( Podsakoff & Dalton, 1987, p. 433 ). Moreover, their hope is that this accumulating body of methodological work will be used for training future generations of strategic management researchers because, as noted by philosopher and poet Jorge Santayana, those who can not remember the past are condemned to repeat it. Nevertheless, the authors add their voice to those of others ( e. g., Bettis, Ethiraj, Gambardella, Helfat, & Mitchel, in press ; Bettis, Gambardella, Helfat, & Mitchell, 2014 ; Wiersema & Bowen, 2009 ) who have shown that the potential for misusing methods is not uncommon and impedes theoretical progress. The authors hope their article will serve as a useful resource for current and future scholars as well as journal editors and reviewers.
Q3. What is the coefficient for X when Z is at its mean?
When X and Z are mean-centered, the coefficient for X represents its slope when Z is at its mean, and likewise, the coefficient on Z is its slope when X is at its mean.
Q4. How much of the variance in product terms is random error?
given that, when reported, reliabilities for the components are often in the .70s, it is likely that about 50% of variance in product terms is random error.
Q5. What is the meaning of simple slopes?
Because simple slopes represent a range of effects in most cases (Aguinis, 2004), it is not meaningful to hypothesize or test a single effect for a predictor when that predictor interacts with a moderator variable.
Q6. How many articles did they not mention measurement error?
62.44% of articles in their review did not identify measurement error as a potential problem, as evidenced by the fact that they did not mention measurement error at all.
Q7. What is the effect of loss of information on the moderator?
This loss of information not only undermines the interpretation of the moderator, but it also reduces the variance of the moderator variable, and the estimated moderating effects are biased downward (Aguinis, 1995).
Q8. What is the effect of range restriction on the variance of variables?
These mechanisms lead to range restriction, meaning that the variance of variables is smaller in the sample compared to the variance in the population.
