<p>My question<sup>1</sup> has been marked "duplicate"<sup>2-4</sup> and closed. I believe it's a misunderstanding, since the other question my question has been associated with is different. The other question asks why a given variable becomes non-significant when included in a more complex model. My question asks why a given variable becomes significant when included in a more complex model. That's exactly the opposite, therefore the answers given in the other question (which I read before posting) don't help me.</p>

<p>Is there something I can do to re-open the question?</p>
