Abstract in brief

  • Researchers utilize 3-way interactions in moderated multiple regression to analyze how three independent variables collectively impact a dependent variable, but probing significant interactions can be inconsistent and error-prone.
  • The authors created a new significance test for slope differences in these interactions, demonstrating its relevance for psychological research.
  • Monte Carlo simulations indicated that factors like sample size, slope difference size, and data reliability influence the power of the test, revealing previously unnoticed slope differences when applied to existing data.
