PROCESS Graphing templates

As researcher, there is a big chance that you have to create graphs. I decided to created some PROCESS Graphing templates to help you graph moderation, moderated mediation, etc., based on the output of the PROCESS macro from Andrew Hayes for SPSS.

This PROCESS macro from Andrew Hayes is very usefull to calculate conditional effects within SPSS. If you want to visualize these effects, you can use one of my PROCESS Graphing templates.

The below templates are designed for Windows OS, but I have good news for Apple OS users: the templates are now also available for Excel on Mac!

Please use Mozilla or Edge to download your templates. Currently, the download does not work with Chrome. In case you do have trouble with the download, please feel free to contact me by sending an email to info [at] md2c [dot] nl and I will make sure you will get your template.

Nowadays, prices are rising more and more. I want to keep the price of these templates as low as possiple. My goal is to help other researchers, not to make a fortune. Do you want the help me keeping this price low? Then please donate a small amount to cover the costs of the webhosting etc.

I also aim to make an annual donation to Setter Rescue Netherlands, they help many dogs to get a nice family. Every dog deserves a nice home! This year, I could contribute a little to their new car.

Available PROCESS Templates

Please find below the current available templates. If you have special requests, please reach out to me. I can’t guarantee you that I can graph every model, but I am willing to try!

Model 1

PRODUCT V3 Model 1 Moderation (dich IV in legend - cont W on x-axis)

For model 1, I have 3 options, depending on your type of variables and how you want to graph the moderation effect:

Model 3

PRODUCT V3 Model 3 Moderated moderation

Graphing moderated moderation (PROCESS v3.0) – Model 3 (Windows version), with a continuous independent variable (X) Negative Emotions, a continuous dependent variable (Y) Support for Government Action, a categorical moderator (W) Sex, and a continuous moderator (Z) Age. Click here for the Mac version.

If you need model 3 for continuous variables, please reach out to me, so I can make a custom version for you.

Model 7

For Model 7 I have 2 options:

Model 7 Moderated Mediation Conceptual Model PROCESS

Graphing moderated mediation (PROCESS v3) – Model 7 (Windows version), with a dichotomous independent variable (X), and a continuous moderator (W), mediator (M) and dependent variable (Y). Click here for the Mac version.

Model 7 Moderated Mediation Conceptual Model PROCESS continuous

Graphing moderated mediation (PROCESS v3) – Model 7 (Windows version), with a continuous independent variable (X), and a continuous moderator (W), continuous mediator (M) and continuous dependent variable (Y). Click here for the Mac version.

Model 8

For model 8 I have 2 options, but I recommend you to update PROCESS to the latest edition.

PRODUCT V216 Model 8 Moderated mediation (dich IV - cont W - cont Y)


Graphing moderated mediation (PROCESS v2.16) – Model 8 (Windows version), with a dichotomous independent variable (X), and a continuous moderator (W), mediator (M) and dependent variable (Y). As this is based on an earlier version of PROCESS, I am discontinuing the development of this template and recommend you to use V3.

PRODUCT V3 Model 8 Graphing moderated mediation (dich IV - cont W - cont M - cont Y)

Graphing moderated mediation (PROCESS v3) – Model 8 (Windows version), with a dichotomous independent variable (X), and a continuous moderator (W), mediator (M) and dependent variable (Y). Click here for the Mac version.

Model 14

PRODUCT V3 Model 14 Graphing moderated mediation

Graphing moderated mediation (PROCESS v3.0) – Model 14 (Windows version), with a continuous independent variable (X) Dysfunctional Behavior, a continuous dependent variable (Y) Work Performance, a continuous mediator (M) Negative Affective Tone, and a continuous moderator (W) Nonverbal Negative Expressivity. Click here for the Mac version.

Graphing moderated mediation (PROCESS v3.0) – Model 14 (Windows version), with a dichotomous independent variable (X), a continuous dependent variable (Y), a continuous mediator (M), and a continuous moderator (W). Click here for the Mac version.

Model 15

Model 15 Moderated Mediation

Graphing moderated mediation (PROCESS v3.0) – Model 15 (Windows version) uses a continuous independent variable (X), a continuous dependent variable (Y), a continuous mediator (M) , and a continuous moderator (W).
