q3 · i? · associational · r2

Model 2 interaction test in the multilevel SEM of the two-wave GSA survey (580 youth, 38 GSAs), adjusting for baseline hope and covariates. The article prints the interaction contrast "b = 0.354, p = 0.039 for immigrant-origin youth vs. b = 0.029, p = 0.760 for non-immigrant-origin youth"; no standardized effect size is printed.

"immigrant-origin youth, but not non-immigrant-origin youth, reported increased hope at the school year’s end when discussing immigration more frequently over the school year (b = 0.354, p = 0.039 for immigrant-origin youth vs. b = 0.029, p = 0.760 for non-immigrant-origin youth)"
