J'ai une question sur l'interprétation des coefficients d'une interaction entre variable continue et variable catégorielle. voici mon modèle:
model_glm3=glm(cog~lg_hag+race+pdg+sex+as.factor(educa)+(lg_hag:as.factor(educa)),
data=base_708)
Coefficients:

disons que l'équation du modèle est:
E [cog] = a + b1 (lg_hag) + b2 (educa2 * lg_hag) + b3 (educa3 * lg_hag) + b4 (educa4 * lg_hag) + b5 (pdg, centré) + autres covars, où
b1 = difference in cog with higher lg_hag among lowest education (coded as 1)
b1 + b2 = difference in cog with higher lg_hag among middle education (coded as 2)
b1 + b3 = difference in cog with higher lg_hag among high education (coded as 3)
b1 + b3 = difference in cog with higher lg_hag among very high education (coded as 4)
b5 = difference in cog with each unit increase in pdg
Ma question est: si mon interprétation est correcte, comment construire des intervalles de confiance pour chaque estimation d'effet des interactions (par exemple: b1 + b2) à partir des intervalles de confiance de b1 et b2.
