Language for interpreting slope coefficients (by level of measurement)
Interpreting coefficients for interval independent variables: "For a one [unit] increase in [x], [y] [increases/decreases], on average, by [coefficient] [unit]s."
Interpreting coefficients for ordinal variables: "For a one [level] increase in [x], [y] [increases/decreases], on average, by [coefficient] [unit]s."
Interpreting coefficients for binary variables: "On average, being [value of x when x=1] [increases/decreases] [y] by [coefficient] [unit]s."
