Hello everyone. I hope all of us get well during the pandemic.

I have conducted an analysis using binary logisitc regression to investigate the intersection between gender (male, female) and official language efficiency (English, French, both English and French) with the outcome: youth's sense of belonging. However, I am unsure of two considerations that needed your comments.

First, I found a significant contribution of the intersection between gender and official language efficiency with the outcome (e.g. youth' sense of belonging). Male, speaking English as the reference group. However, the results showed no significant differences among the variable's levels. In such a case, is it fine if we still report it as a significant result?

Second, in the same situation, I found nonsignificant contributions to the entire intersection (visible minority status intersecting official language efficiency) with the outcome. However, I found a significant difference among it level. For example, compared to youth not experiencing visible minority status speaking English (the reference group), youth with visibility status speaking French are more likely to have a strong sense of belonging. In this case, is it appropriate to report it?

Thank you very much,

Quan
