Note: B = the estimated slope of the dependent variable as a function of the predictor; SE = Standard Error for the B; OR = Odds Ratio. Main effects of moderators shown here are those generated by models excluding the interaction term. Each moderator was tested independently (i.e., by itself, apart from the other moderators).
