Hello Dr. Muthen,

I am testing several different interaction effects hypothesized in the same model.

Since my moderators are continuous variables, so I tried three different methods:

1. LMS

2. multiple group SEMs

3. Hierarchy regression in SPSS

The results of these methods were not consistent. Would this indicate any issues of my data or simply be due to different methods?

Thank you.

1 and 2 will not be the same because in 1 the moderator is treated as continuous and in 2 it is categorical. I am not familiar with number 3.
