谢谢你的建议和参考文献;怎么我读到的文章只是提到如果有cross level的调节作用的话,考虑用group mean centering,其他的一般都用grand mean centering呢?描述如下# S4 W3 \' J2 K7 K; |

In this test of the cross-level moderation, I have centered mood around its group mean.8 R; u* D% a: u2 r
There are some arguments in the literature that group mean centering is a better choice of scaling for the level-1 variables when investigating cross-level interactions (i.e., moderation).

We will demonstrate this notion later in the session. Note that, in addition to group mean centering, this model also includes an additional predictor of the intercept; namely, ave_mood." ~5 V( k1 Q; s0 s: w
Ave_mood is the average mood within each group (i.e., the mean mood for each group).
