You run a two-way ANOVA in JAMOVI with two independent variables: message type (positive vs. negative) and audience age group (young vs. middle-aged vs. older), with the audience age group being a moderator. The dependent variable is intention to share the message (measured on a 1–5 scale). That is, you would like to investigate whether message type affects intention to share, and whether age group moderates the relationship between message type and intention to share. The output shows: A significant main effect for message type (p < .01) A non-significant main effect for age group (p = .45) A significant interaction effect between message type and age group (p < .05) Based on this output, explain what the results mean by answering the question below: What do you conclude about the relationship between message type, age group, and intention to share the message?
