Answer 1

• Assumptions of normality (Shapiro-Wilk)

The SPSS output is:

The assumptions of normality are met.

• Homogeneity of variance (Lavene)

The SPSS output is:

The Homogeneity of variance can be assumed for this data.

• Outliers

The SPSS output is:

There are no outliers in the data.

• Skewness/Kurtosis

The data is positively skewed.

Kurtosis is the same for both factors.
