Hello could someone help me out with this analysis?
I do not know how to interpret these results. I am interested in the last 4 rows.  Firstly: the translation for 'wetenschappelijk determinisme' is scientific determinism, en 'verwijtbaarheid' is blame. I want to know if belief in determinism has more or less of an effect on blame moderated by belief in retributivism and/or utilitarianism.
But do I Interpret this as 1) scientific determinism has less of an effect on blame when the judge strongly believes in retributivism. or 2) when the judge has a high belief in scientific determinism and retributivism then the blame score is 0,368 units lower?
When I ask AI sometimes it says retributivism strengthens the effect of scientific determinism on blame and sometimes it says it weakens it.
Can someone please answer this question?
