Table 6.

Moderated regression analyses testing the effect of interaction duration on perceived anthropomorphism moderated through individual tendency to anthropomorphize (H5a), respectively, individual need to belong (H5b); the effect of interaction intensity on perceived anthropomorphism moderated through individual tendency to anthropomorphize (H6a), respectively, individual need to belong (H6b); the effect of interaction duration on perceived social presence moderated through individual need to belong (H7); the effect of interaction intensity on perceived social presence moderated through individual need to belong (H8).
