Basic Concept of Independent, Dependent, Mediating, and Moderating Variables

The session focuses on developing a basic understanding of Independent, Dependent, Mediating, and Moderating variables. Additionally the session also guides on how to propose different hypothesis based on these variables in a research framework.

Really your channel isa blessing for research students.
Thank you for your efforts👏

[@researchwithfawad]

Thanks. I am glad you liked it. Please do like and share the videos.

Thank you so much, so easy and so organized explaining and clear.

Thank u very well explained

Glad it was helpful!

Is it possible to have both mediating and moderating variable in one model? I’m not talking about a variable having the possibility of being a moderating and mediating variable. I’m talking about 2 different variables, and one being a moderator, and one being a mediator.

[@researchwithfawad]

Yes it is possible

[@frednarh6866]

Many thanks Prof. please do you have a video on how to use SPSS to run both mediating and moderating variables

[@researchwithfawad]

Thanks. I am glad you liked it. Please you can refer to the playlists section on the channel to learn how to use AMOS/SmartPLS/SEMinR/SPSS for Mediation and Moderation.
Here is the link to the playlists: ruclips.net/user/FawadLatifplaylists

Sir, if we want to check the impact of financial literacy on investment decision then which test should we use?

[@researchwithfawad]

Since, it is impact and if both are variables measured on likert scale, go for regression. May be in spss or smartpls

@@researchwithfawad Thank you sir

[@mahnoor2775]

Sir, what's the best way to control for demographic variables that are covariates? Theoretical backing OR controlling for every single demographic variable that comes out significant for your DVs in your correlation? I am finding scholars discouraging the latter because it is like overfitting a model. Is that true?

[@researchwithfawad]

Please watch this video on how to use categorical predictor variables

[@mahnoor2775]

@@researchwithfawad No no, I am not asking the procedure on how to code demographics. I am asking how does one decide an XYZ demographic variable could be a covariate and hence should be controlled for main analysis. Theoretical basis OR we check all correlations of demographic variables with DVs and control all significant ones as covariates?

[@researchwithfawad]

You may based it on the existing literature, even if you do not have theoretical underpinning, each study has its own context, and controls may change.
