Interpretation of interaction: A review
arXiv:0712.1106 · doi:10.1214/07-AOAS124
Abstract
Several different types of statistical interaction are defined and distinguished, primarily on the basis of the nature of the factors defining the interaction. Illustrative examples, mostly epidemiological, are given. The emphasis is primarily on interpretation rather than on methods for detecting interactions.
