Note: Column 2 and Column 3 are contrasted with Column 1, with significance level in parentheses. A Holm–Bonferroni sequential correction was applied to account for multiple tests of between-group differences. No moderation terms remained statistically significant after applying a Holm-Bonferroni sequential correction.
