Perguntas do quiz (10)
1Why should you use an ANOVA rather than a lot of T-tests?
- APerforming lots of t-tests increases the probability of making a Type 1 error
- BPerforming lots of t-tests increases the probability of making a Type 2 error
- CPerforming lots of t-tests increases the chance of failing to reject a false null hypothesis
- DAll of the above
2The ANOVA statistic is calculated by ____________
- ASubtracting the between groups variance from the within groups variance
- BAdding the between groups variance to the within groups variance
- CDividing the between groups variance by the within groups variance
- DMultiplying the between groups variance by the within groups variance
3You calculate an F ratio and get a value more than 1. How would you interpret this?
- AThere is more between groups variance than within groups variance
- BThere is the same amount of between groups variance as within groups variance
- CThere is less between groups variance than within groups variance
- DThere is no within groups variance
4You have calculated the SSbetween as 10 and the SStotal as 15, what would the SSwithin be?
- A5
- B0.67
- C-5
- D25
5Your study has four conditions with 20 participants in each condition. What would the df-within be?
- A79
- B76
- C77
- D80
6Which of the following is the correct way to calculate the MSbetween
- ASSbetween / df-between
- BSSbetween / SStotal
- CSSbetween * df-between
- DSSbetween * df-total
7A researcher wants to see if caffeine improves mathematics ability. She randomly assigned participants to three treatment groups: no caffeine (control), 40mg of coffee, and 80mg of coffee. After the treatment, all participants took a maths test. A one-way ANOVA was performed on the data.
The output is shown below, but the F-value is missing. Using the other information in the table what should the F-value be?
- A1.65
- B22.32
- C13.47
- D11.00
8What should the researcher conclude from the ANOVA results shown in question 7?

- AThere was a significant effect of treatment type on maths ability
- BThere was no significant effect of treatment type on maths ability
- CMaths ability was significantly worse with no caffeine
- DCaffeine significantly improves maths ability
9What does the eta squared tell us?
- AIf there is a significant difference between groups
- BHow much variance in the dependent variable can be accounted for by the independent variable
- CHow much variance in the independent variable can be accounted for by the dependent variable
- DIf homogeneity has been established
10If an author reports the results of an ANOVA as F (4, 65) = 9.56, p = 0.1, what is the between-groups degrees of freedom
- A65
- B9.56
- C4
- D5
