Dear all,
I'm doing moderating effects analysis, the dependent variable is Y, independent variables are X1 and X2, the moderator M is a dummy. The regression results are as followed.
According to the coefficients of X1, M and X1*M, I would say M=1 strengthen the relationship between X1 and Y.
BUT according to the coefficients of X2, M and X2*M, how should I explain? Can I say if M=1, the negative relationship between X2 and Y weakens?

Thank you in advance!
Best
Josh
