Here is a regression model using GSS2008 data, respondents aged 18-35. All slopes are statistically significant:
Dependent Variable: # of Times Respondent Goes to Bar Per Month
$\begin{array}{lr}
\text { Independent Variable } & \text { Slope } \
\text { Sexual Orientation (Hetero=0, Gay or } \mathrm{Bi}=1) & 5.49 \
\text { Sex (Male=0, Female=1) } & -1.34 \
\text { Interaction: Sexual Orientation x Sex } & -5.39 \
\text { Constant: } & 3.18
\end{array}$
$\begin{array}{ll}
\text { R-Squared: } & .05 \
\mathrm{n}: & 353
\end{array}$ Who goes to bars most frequently?
A) Heterosexual men
B) Heterosexual women
C) A gay/bisexual man

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

A gay or bisexual man goes to bars most frequently. This is determined by adding the constant (3.18) to the slope for sexual orientation (5.49), which indicates that, all else being equal, gay or bisexual men go to bars more often than their heterosexual counterparts. The interaction term and the slope for sex are not added to this calculation because they apply to women or the interaction between sexual orientation and sex, not to gay or bisexual men directly.
