Dear friends

Control variables and moderator are same?? Can we say control variables moderate the relationship??

[Neeraj Kaushik]

No, control var and moderator are not the same.

I discussed this point a few days or months ago.

So, I invite members to explain their understanding on this topic.

[Prof. Arunkumar Dubey]

Statistically speaking, both control variables and moderators are modelled as independent variables in a regression equation. However, their interpretation is altogether very different. 

In moderation, you try to assess the interaction effect (let's say PERCEIVED ORGANIZATIONAL SUPPORT & WORK LIFE BALANCE on JOB SATISFACTION). Moderators can be categorical as well. However, when the moderator is categorical, you need to perform MULTI GROUP ANALYSIS (MGA). 

A Moderator usually explains the boundary condition in the the relationship between 2 variables will either increase or decrease. Moderators usually answers the WHEN Question. 

However, in control variables you try to reduce the impact of confounding variables on the dependent variable. Usually, in literature you will find that categorical variables such as GENDER, QUALIFICATION, DESIGNATION etc are controlled for. Controls can also be a metric variable as well. 

Hope it helps.

CV are the one whose effect we wish to eliminate from the model, hence, we use Hierarchical Regression.

Mod var is an one whose effect we check for the relation of IDV and DV.
