Course overview

Course Overview

Welcome to Moderation and Mediation Analysis Using IBM SPSS Statistics and PROCESS Macro, a comprehensive course designed to help you understand and apply two of the most powerful techniques for examining complex relationships between variables. Whether you are a student, researcher, academic, or data analyst, this course provides both the theoretical foundation and practical skills required to conduct moderation and mediation analyses using IBM SPSS Statistics and the PROCESS Macro developed by Prof. Andrew F. Hayes.


The course introduces the concepts of mediation and moderation, explaining their purpose, assumptions, and applications in behavioral, social, business, health, and educational research. You will learn how to install and use the PROCESS Macro, specify appropriate models, perform mediation and moderation analyses, interpret direct, indirect, and conditional effects, understand bootstrap confidence intervals, and report findings according to APA style. Through step-by-step demonstrations and practical examples, you will gain hands-on experience in testing research hypotheses and interpreting complex statistical relationships.


By the end of this course, you will have the confidence to perform moderation and mediation analyses using PROCESS Macro in IBM SPSS Statistics and apply these techniques effectively in academic research, dissertations, theses, and professional data analysis.
