ANOVA Workings

1. The document provides a series of chapter exercises and questions about analysis of variance (ANOVA) for the writer to answer in APA style using at least five scholarly resources. 2. The exercises ask the writer to define terms related to ANOVA like randomized ANOVA, repeated measures ANOVA, one way, complete ANOVA summary tables, interpret F ratios, perform post hoc comparisons and determine effect sizes. 3. The questions ask the writer to define an F-ratio, explain error variance and why someone would want more than two levels of an independent variable, interpret differences in within and between group variance, explain the purpose of post hoc tests and probabilistic equivalence.

1 Support this question and answer paper (APA style) with a minimum of five resources.

In addition to these specified resources, other appropriate scholarly resources, including older articles, may be included. Length: 5-7 pages not including title and reference pages

Chapter Exercises 2. What is the difference between a randomized ANOVA and a repeated measures ANOVA? What does the term one way mean with respect to an ANOVA?

4. If a researcher decides to use multiple comparisons in a study with three conditions, what is the probability of a type 1 error across these comparisons? Use the Bonferroni adjustment to determine the suggested alpha level.

6. When should post hoc comparisons be performed?

8. Why is a repeated measures ANOVA statistically more powerful than a randomized ANOVA?

10. In the study of the effects of stress on illness, a researcher tallied the number of colds people contracted during a 6-month period as a function of the amount of stress they reported during the same period. There were three-stress levels; minimal, moderate, and high stress. The sums of squares appear in the following ANOVA summary table. The mean for each condition and the number of subjects per condition also noted. Source Between Goups Within Groups Total Df SS 22,167 14,750 36,917 MS F

2 a. b. c. d. e. f. Complete the ANOVA summary table. Is Fobt significant at OX=.05; at OX=.01? Perform post hoc comparisons if necessary. What conclusions can be drawn from the F ratio and the post hoc comparisons? What is the effect size and what does it mean? Graph the means.

12. A researcher conducted an experiment on the effects of a new drug on depression. The researcher had a control group that received nothing, a placebo group, and an experimental group the drug. A depression inventory that provided a measure of depression on a 50 point scale was used (50 indicates that an individual is very high on the depression variable) The ANOVA summary table appears next, along with a mean depression score for each condition.

14. A researcher has been hired by a pizzeria to determine which type of crust customers prefer. The restaurant offers three types of crust; hand tossed, thick, and thin. Follow are the mean number of 1-inch pieces of pizza eaten for each condition from 10 subject who had the

3 opportunity to eat as many pieces with each type of crust they desired. The ANOVA summery table as follows. Source Subject Between Error Total Df SS 2.75 180.05 21.65 204.45 MS F

Questions and Answers 1. 2. 3. 4. What is an F-ratio? Define all the technical terms in your answer. What is error variance and how is it calculated? Why would anyone ever want more than two (2) levels of an independent variable? If you were doing a study to see if a treatment causes a significant effect, what would it mean if within groups; variance was higher than between groups variance? If between groups, variance was higher than within groups variance. Explain your answer What is the purpose of a post-hoc test with analysis of variance? What is probabilistic equivalence? Why is it important?
