Dear Statalist, I am dealing with a variable that it is in between 0-1 (taking any possible value within these bounds). This variable serves as a moderator (interaction) in a regression. I was asked to report the marginal effects for the mean +/- 2 std (assuming that 95% of observations will be in between). However, as you can see next, the mean – 2 std would be a negative value (which is outside the range of the variable). Does this have to do with the fact that the variable does not follow a normal distribution and that it is not symmetric? Or is it something that I am missing here?

I know it is not properly a Stata question, so, I apologize in advance for the inconvenience.

Thanks for your help.
