Question 1

Question
I'm doing a three way ANOVA with a 3x3x2 design, what does this tell you?
Answer
  • That this experiment has 2 IV's. Two of them have three levels
  • That this experiment has 3 levels. Two of them have 3 IV's and one has two
  • That this experiment has 3 IV's. Three of them have 3 levels
  • That this experiment has 3 IV's. Two of them has 3 levels and one has two.

Question 2

Question
What information do we get from a factorial ANOVA?
Answer
  • We can see the main effects of each DV
  • We can see the main effects of each IV, and how they interact
  • We can see the main effects of each DV, and how they interact
  • We can see the main effects of each IV

Question 3

Question
Within the variability explained by SSm, how can we further split the variance in an independent measures factorial ANOVA?
Answer
  • You cannot further split the variance explained by SSm
  • The variance explained by SSm is made up of only the SS for each variable
  • The variance explained by SSm is made up of the SS for each variable plus the SS for the interactions
  • The variance explained by SSm is made up of the MS for each variable plus the MS for the interactions

Question 4

Question
I have two factorial IV's: Age and gender. How do we look at the main effect of age?
Answer
  • We average across all levels of gender and only look at the differences in age groups
  • We average across all levels of age and only look at the differences in age group
  • We average across all levels of age and only look at the different levels of gender groups
  • We average across all levels of gender and only look at the differences in gender

Question 5

Question
Following from the previous question, I have calculated SSage and SSgender. How do I calculate SSage*gender. What does this tell me?
Answer
  • After calculating SSage and SSgender then the remaining variance accounted for by SSt is the variance from SSage*gender. This is the interaction between the two variables
  • After calculating SSage and SSgender then the remaining variance accounted for by SSm is the variance from SSage*gender. This is the main effect of the two variables
  • After calculating SSage and SSgender then the remaining variance accounted for by SSm is the variance from SSage*gender. This is the interaction between the two variables
  • You do not get SSage*gender in independent samples factorial ANOVA

Question 6

Question
What is an interaction?
Answer
  • When both IV's have a main effect
  • When the effect of one DV on the IV is dependent on another DV
  • When the effect of one IV on the DV is dependent on another IV
  • When both DV's have a main effect

Question 7

Question
The following graph summarises the interaction effect of age and gender on colour perception test scores (DV). What does this interaction show?
Answer
  • Colour perception improvement with age did not differ both boys and girls. For both genders, colour perception was better for 11 year olds compared to five year olds.
  • Colour perception improvement with age differed between boys and girls. For boys, no difference in colour perception was found between 5 year olds and 11 year olds. However, for girls there was an effect of age on colour perception.
  • Colour perception improvement with age did not differ both boys and girls across the ages. For both genders, colour perception was better for 5 year olds compared to 11 year olds.
  • Colour perception improvement with age differed between boys and girls. For girls, no differences in colour perception were found between 5 year olds and 11 year olds. However, for boys there was an effect of age on colour perception.

Question 8

Question
As my study is a factorial between subjects design, the relevant assumption I should be concerned about is _____________. If this assumption is met, I would expect to see that ___________.
Answer
  • Homogeneity of variance; the Levene's test should not be significant.
  • Sphericity; the Mauchly's test should be significant.
  • Sphericity; the Mauchly's test should not be significant.
  • Homogeneity of variance; the Levene's test should be significant.

Question 9

Question
After completing our factorial ANOVA, why do we need to test the simple effects?
Answer
  • Because we want to examine the differences between the IV's
  • To understand the effects of the individual variables
  • You don't need to do this as it shows the same as the main effects
  • Because this is the best way to explain an interaction, if the interaction exists.

Question 10

Question
Why can't we only interpret the F-value from the SSm (i.e. "Corrected Model) line of output?
Answer
  • Because we don't just need to know how much variance is explained by the model, but whether each individual variable and their interactions is explaining a significant amount of the variance
  • Because we need to know how much variance is explained by the SSr output, which is part of the variance explained by SSm
  • Trick question - we only interpret the SSm line of output in factorial ANOVA
  • Because we don't just need to know how much variance is explained by the model, but whether each individual variable is explaining a significant amount of the variance
