Hi everyone,
Please I need your help
I have a model includes 2 independent variables (A and B), a dependent variable (C) and a moderator G(gender).
A ---->B ----> C
A -----------> C
If I conduct GMA, does it mean that G moderating the effect of three paths(A--->B, B--->C and A--->C) simultaneously?
If I suppose G only moderating the B-->C and A--->C, I need to conduct two separate analysis B*G-->C and A*G--->C, right?
Then, if I conduct B*G-->C and A*G--->C in a model simultaneously, what are the differences comparing to the above separate two models?
Greetings

You can also include both interaction effects in the same model. You do not need to do this separately. See below.
It is a different assumption to test them both separately or together. Usually, if you assume both to be necessary you should test them together. However, multicollinearity could be a problem is such a model.
