I have 3 continuous variables: the dependent, independent and the moderator.  Baron and Kenny (1986, pp 1175) presented a scatter plot of the moderator variable (Horizontal axis) against the "effect/slope of the independent on the dependent" (Vertical axis).  I wonder if I can do the same for my data (n=100) using SPSS?  I want to visually examine if there is a linear or nonlinear relationship between the moderator and the effect/slope of the independent on the dependent. Your help is very much appreciated.  Thank you.
