Since only one factor is utilized, the treatments are the four levels (A, B, C, D) of the qualitative factor.
8.2
The treatments are the combinations of levels of each of the two factors. There are 2 5 = 10 treatments. They are:
(A, 50), (A, 60), (A, 70), (A, 80), (A, 90)
(B, 50), (B, 60), (B, 70), (B, 80), (B, 90)

The rejection region for both diagrams requires = .05 in the upper tail of the F-distribution with 1
= p 1 = 2 1 = 1 and 2 = n p = 12 2 = 10. From Table VIII, Appendix B, F.05 = 4.96. The
rejection region is F > 4.96.
For diagram #1, the observed value of the test statistic falls in the rejection region (F = 37.5 > 4.96).
Thus, H0 is rejected. There is sufficient evidence to indicate the samples were drawn from
populations with different means at = .05.
For diagram #2, the observed value of the test statistic falls in the rejection region (F = 5.21 > 4.96).
Thus, H0 is rejected. There is sufficient evidence to indicate the samples were drawn from
populations with different means at = .05.
h.
We must assume both populations are normally distributed with common variances.

The rejection region requires = .01 in the upper tail of the F-distribution with 1 = k 1 = 3 1 = 2
and 2 = n k = 12 3 = 9. From Table X, Appendix B, F.01 = 8.02. The rejection region is
F > 8.02.
Since the observed value of the test statistic does not fall in the rejection region (F = 2.93 8.02),
H0 is not rejected. There is insufficient evidence to indicate a difference in the treatment means at

a.
This is a completely randomized design because the subjects were randomly assigned to one of three
groups.
b.
The response variable was the total WTP (willing to pay) value and the treatments were the 3 types
of instructions given.
c.
To determine if the mean total WTP values differed among the three groups, we test:
H0: 1 = 2 = 3
Ha: At least two treatment means differ
d.
One would number the subjects from 1 to 252. Then, use a random number generator to generate
350 to 400 random numbers from 1 to 252 (We need to generate more than 252 random numbers to
account for duplicates.) The first 84 different random numbers will be assigned to group 1, the next
84 different random numbers will be assigned to groups 2, and the rest will be assigned to group 3.

Ha: At least two treatment means differ
b.
473
From the ANOVA table, the test statistic is F = 1.60 and the p-value = 0.174.
Since the observed p-value (p = 0.174) is not less than = .10, H0 is not rejected. There is insufficient
evidence to indicate a difference in the mean LUST discount percentages among the seven states at
= .10.

a.
The experimental unit in the study is the college tennis coach. The dependent variable is the
response to the statement the Prospective Student-Athlete Form on the web site contributes very
little to the recruiting process on a scale from 1 to 7. There is one factor in the study and it is the
NCAA division of the college tennis coach. There are 3 levels of this factor, and thus, there are 3
treatments Division I, Division II, and Division III.
b.
To determine if the mean responses of tennis coaches from the different divisions differ, we test:
H0: 1 = 2 = 3
Ha: At least 1 i differs

Since the observed p-value of the test (p < .003) is less than = .05, H0 is rejected. There is

To determine if there was a difference in the mean energy expended (per robot) among the 4 colony
sizes, we test:
H0: 1 = 2 = 3 = 4
Ha: At least two means differ
d.
8.26
Since the p-value (<.001) is less than (.05), H0 is rejected. There is sufficient evidence to indicate a
difference in mean energy expended per robot among the 4 colony sizes at = .05.

There is one factor in this problem which is Group. There are 5 treatments in this problem,
corresponding to the 5 levels of Group: Casualties, Survivors, Implementers/casualties,
Implementers/survivors, and Formulators. The response variable is the ethics score. The
experimental units are the employees enrolled in an Executive MBA program.
b.
To determine if there are any differences among the mean ethics scores for the five groups, we test:
H0: 1 = 2 = 3 = 4 = 5
Ha: At least one of the population means differs from the rest
c.
The test statistic is F = 9.85 and the p-value is p = 0.000. Since the p-value (0.000) is less than any
reasonable significance level , H0 is rejected. There is sufficient evidence to indicate a difference in
the mean ethics scores among the five groups of employees for any reasonable value of .

To determine if the mean THICKNESS differs among the 4 types of housing, we test:
H0: 1 = 2 = 3 = 4
Ha: At least two treatment means differ
The test statistic is F = 11.74 and the p-value = 0.000. Since the observed p-value (0.000) is less than any
reasonable significance level, Ho is rejected. There is sufficient evidence to indicate a difference in the
mean thickness among the four levels of housing for any reasonable value of .
To determine if the mean WHIPPING CAPACITY differs among the 4 types of housing, we test:
H0: 1 = 2 = 3 = 4
Ha: At least two treatment means differ
The test statistic is F = 31.36 and the p-value = 0.000. Since the observed p-value (0.000) is less than any
reasonable significance level, Ho is rejected. There is sufficient evidence to indicate a difference in the
mean whipping capacity among the four levels of housing for any reasonable value of .
To determine if the mean STRENGTH differs among the 4 types of housing, we test:
H0: 1 = 2 = 3 = 4
Ha: At least two treatment means differ
The test statistic is F = 1.70 and the p-value = 0.193. Since the observed p-value (0.193) is higher than any
reasonable significance level, H0 is not rejected. There is insufficient evidence to indicate a difference in
the mean strength among the four levels of housing for any reasonable value of .
Thus, the mean thickness and the mean percent overrun differ among the 4 housing systems.

To determine if the mean anxiety levels differ among the 3 groups, we test:
H0: 1 = 2 = 3
Ha: At least two treatment means differ
The test statistic is F = 9.97.
The rejection region requires = .01 in the upper tail of the F-distribution with 1 = k 1 = 3 1 = 2
and 2 = n k = 76 3 = 73. From Table X, Appendix B, F.01 = 4.92. The rejection region is
F > 4.92.
Since the observed value of the test statistic does fall in the rejection region (F = 9.97 > 4.92), H0 is
rejected. There is sufficient evidence to indicate a difference in the mean anxiety levels among the
three groups at = .01.
e.
The assumption of constant variance is satisfied since the three sample variances are all very
similar (7.62 = 57.76, 7.52 = 56.25, and 7.52 = 56.25).
We are unable to check the normality assumption since we need the individual anxiety levels
to create a histogram or stem-and-leaf plot.

From the confidence interval comparing large-cap and medium-cap mutual funds, we find that 0 is in
the interval. Thus, 0 is not an unusual value for the difference in the mean rates of return between
large-cap and medium-cap mutual funds. This means we would not reject H0. There is insufficient
evidence of a difference in mean rates of return between large-cap and medium-cap mutual funds at
= .05.
c.
From the confidence interval comparing large-cap and small-cap mutual funds, we find that 0 is not

of a difference in mean rates of return between large-cap and small-cap mutual funds at = .05.

From the confidence interval comparing medium-cap and small-cap mutual funds, we find that 0 is in

From the above, the mean rate of return for large-cap mutual funds is the largest, followed by

From the printout, the test statistic is F = 38.07 and the p-value is p = 0.002. Since the p-value is so

From the SPSS printout, there is no significant difference in the mean number of oil rigs running in
Alaska and Utah. However, both of these states have a significantly smaller number of rigs running
than does California. Thus, California has the largest mean number of oil rigs running.

To determine if there are differences among the mean temperatures among the three treatments, we test:
H0: 1 = 2 = 3
Ha: At least two treatment means differ
The test statistic is F = 0.02. The associated p-value is p = .9813. Since the p-value is very large, there is
no evidence of a difference in mean temperature among the three treatments. Since there is no difference,
we do not need to compare the means. It appears that the presence of plants or pictures of plants does not
reduce stress.

To determine if there is a difference in mean rate of absenteeism among the 5 days of the week, we test:
H0: 1 = 2 = 3 = 4 = 5
Ha: At least two treatment means differ
495
Since the observed value of the test statistic does not fall in the rejection region (F = 2.00 > 2.69), H0 is

not rejected. There is insufficient evidence to indicate a difference in mean rate of absenteeism among the
5 days of the week at = .05.
To test for the effectiveness of blocking, we test:
H0: All block means are the same
Ha: At least two block means differ
a.
The experimenters expected there to be much variation in the number of participants from week to
week (more participants at the beginning and fewer as time goes on). Thus, by blocking on weeks,
this extraneous source of variation can be controlled.

The mean corrosion rate for system 3 is significantly larger than all of the other mean corrosion rates. The
mean corrosion rate of system 2 is significantly larger than the mean for system 4. If we want the system
(epoxy coating) with the lowest corrosion rate, we would pick either system 1 or system 4. There is no
significant difference between these two groups and they are in the lowest corrosion rate group.

c.
Yes. There are four levels of factor A and three levels of factor B.
d.
A treatment would consist of a combination of one level of factor A and one level of factor B. There
are a total of 4 3 = 12 treatments.
One problem with only one replicate is there are no degrees of freedom for error. This is overcome
by having at least two replicates.

Yes. We need to partition the Treatment Sum of Squares into the Main Effects and Interaction Sum
of Squares. Then we test whether factors A and B interact. Depending on the conclusion of the test
for interaction, we either test for main effects or compare the treatment means.

Two factors are said to interact if the effect of one factor on the dependent variable is not the same at
different levels of the second factor. If the factors interact, then tests for main effects are not

The interaction between temperature and type was significant. This means that the effect of type of
yeast on the mean autolysis yield depends on the level of temperature.

The tests for the main effects should not be run until after the test for interaction is conducted. If
interaction is significant, then these interaction effects could cover up the main effects. Thus, the
main effect tests would not be informative.

Because the interaction of PES and Trust was found to be significant, the tests for the main effects
are irrelevant. If the factors interact, the interaction effect can cover up any main effect differences.
In addition, interaction implies that the effects of one factor on the dependent variable are different at
different levels of the second factor. Thus, there is no one "main" effect of the factor.

The confidence interval to compare drugs A and B is (-11.56, 1.922). Since 0 is in the interval, there
is no evidence of a difference in mean clotting times between drugs A and B.
The confidence interval to compare drugs A and C is (-3.72, 9.762). Since 0 is in the interval, there
is no evidence of a difference in mean clotting times between drugs A and C.
The confidence interval to compare drugs B and C is (1.098, 14.58). Since 0 is not in the interval,
there is evidence of a difference in mean clotting times between drugs B and C. Since the numbers
are positive, the mean clotting time for drug C is greater than that for drug B.
In summary, the mean clotting time for drug C is greater than that for drug B. No other differences

Since the observed value of the test statistic falls in the rejection region (F = 3.06 > 1.65), H0 is
rejected. There is sufficient evidence to indicate differences exist among the treatment means at

If batch and cylinder interact to affect the mean weight, this means that the effect of batch on mean
weight depends on the level of cylinder. Batch 1 may have the highest mean weight on cylinder 2,
but Batch 4 may have the highest mean weight on cylinder 6.

The main effect tests are not warranted since interaction is present in part c.
From the graph, if the like letters are connected, the lines are not parallel. This implies interaction is
present. This agrees with the results of part c.
a.
b.
The two factors are the tent type (treated or untreated) and location (inside or outside). There are 2
2 = 4 treatments. The four treatments are (treated, inside), (treated, outside), (untreated, inside), and
(untreated, outside).
c.
The response variable is the number of mosquito bites received in a 20 minute interval.
d.
There is sufficient evidence to indicate interaction is present. This indicates that the effect of the tent
type on the number of mosquito bites depends on whether the person is inside or outside.

Yes. Since the significant interaction terms do not include wear, it would be necessary to perform
the main effect test for wear. All other main effects are contained in a significant interaction term.
To determine if the mean finish measurements differ for the different levels of wear, we test:
H0: The mean finish measurements for the two levels of wear are the same
Ha: The mean finish measurements for the two levels of wear are different
The test statistic is t = 0.05.
The rejection region requires = .05 in the upper tail of the F-distribution with 1 = 1 and 2 = 16.
From Table VIII, Appendix B, F.05 = 4.49. The rejection region is F > 4.49.
Since the observed value of the test statistic does not fall in the rejection region (F = .05 4.49), H0
is not rejected. There is insufficient evidence to indicate that the mean finish measurements differ for
the different levels of wear at = .05.

To determine if there are differences in mean ratings among the 6 treatments, we test:
H0: All treatment means are the same
Ha: At least two treatment means differ
The test statistic is F = 4.46.
Since no was given, we will use = .05. The rejection region requires = .05 in the upper tail of
the F distribution with 1 = ab 1 = 2(3) 1 = 5 and 2 = n ab = 132 2(3) = 126. From Table VIII,
Appendix B, F.05 2.29. The rejection region is F > 2.29.
Since the observed value of the test statistic falls in the rejection region (F = 4.46 > 2.29), H0 is
rejected. There is sufficient evidence that differences exist among the treatment means at = .05.
Since differences exist, we now test for the interaction effect between Preparation and Class
Standing.
To determine if Preparation and Class Standing interact, we test:
H0: Preparation and Class Standing do not interact
Ha: Preparation and Class Standing do interact

Since the p-value is greater than (p = .174 > .05), H0 is not rejected. There is insufficient evidence
that Preparation and Class Standing interact at = .05. Since the interaction does not exist, we test
for the main effects of Preparation and Class standing.
To determine if there are differences in the mean rating between the three levels of
Class standing, we test:
H0: L = M = H
Ha: At least 2 means differ
The test statistics is F = 2.17 and p = 0.118.
Since the p-value is greater than (p = .118 > .05), H0 is not rejected. There is insufficient evidence
that the mean ratings differ among the 3 levels of Class Standing at = .05.
To determine if there are differences in the mean rating between the two levels of Preparation, we
test:
H0: P = S
Ha: P S
The test statistics is F = 14.40 and p = 0.000.
Since the p-value is less than (p = 0.000 < .05), H0 is rejected. There is sufficient evidence that the
mean ratings differ between the two levels of preparation at = .05.
There are only 2 levels of Preparation. The mean rating for Practice is higher than the mean rating
Review.
