May 4, 2023 at 14:18 comment added Gregg H Others may disagree with me, but I would start with a model-building approach. First, run the two models (with the interactions and without...with all of your variables). Run a $\Delta R^2$ ANOVA to see if the models are different. If you have a significant difference in the models, then look at the interaction terms p-values individually. Drop those that are not significant. Once you have flagged all the potential variables moderated by the grouping variable, check the model again for overall improvement.
May 4, 2023 at 14:01 comment added derhard Thank you. That's totally correct. I have roughly 30 predictors in the model. Including the interaction effect for each predictor would lead to significantly more coefficients (that I also would need to report, making it even more ugly). From my point of knowledge, the sample split is equivalent to your approach. Correct me if I am wrong. Of course, the interaction terms would directly show if there is a significant difference between the groups. However, I am more interested in which coefficients are really significant for which subsample. Given this, do you think my approach is ok?
