Die Regressionsanalyse ist eines der wichtigsten Forschungsinstrumente in den Sozialwissenschaften, einschließlich der historischen Sozialforschung. Allerdings wird sie häufig nicht in ihren vollen Kapazitäten genutzt. In den meistens Fällen beschränkt man sich auf lineare additive Modelle, obgleich die theoretischen Annahmen die Behandlung von nicht-linearen und/oder interaktiven Modellen erlauben. Der vorliegende Beitrag klärt einige grundsätzliche Fragen der interaktiven Modelle und das Multikollinearitätsproblem bei der Anwendung der Methode. (pmb)... view less

'Regression analysis is one of the major research tools in the social sciences, but this technique is not often used to its full capacity. In most cases applications are restricted to linear additive models even though theoretical considerations may point to nonlinear and/or interactive models. In this article the substantive interpretation of interactive models is clarified and the often heard objections that interactive models are not suitable for interval level data and are vitiated by multicollinearity problems are shown to be unwarranted.'
