					<description><![CDATA[TL;DR — Quick Answer Mediation and moderation answer two different questions about a relationship between variables. Mediation asks how or why X affects Y — it identifies a third variable (M) that carries the effect, so X influences M, and M in turn influences Y. Moderation asks when or for whom X affects Y — [&#8230;]]]></description>

It combines two parts: the measurement model (Confirmatory Factor Analysis, which checks that your survey items actually measure the constructs [&#8230;]]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[MK — Dr. Madhuri Kanojiya, Founder &#38; Director · Empire Research Press Most researchers meet the t-test and ANOVA first, run into a dataset that breaks their assumptions, and only then discover there&#8217;s an entire parallel set of statistical tests built for exactly that situation. Non-parametric tests don&#8217;t get the spotlight parametric tests do, but [&#8230;]]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[TL;DR — Quick Answer In research, the population is the entire group of people or items a researcher wants to study and draw conclusions about. The sample is the smaller subset of that population actually studied. Because studying an entire population is usually impractical, researchers study a sample and generalise the findings to the population. [&#8230;]]]></description>
