Traditional ANOVA is usually used when our categorical predictor variable has more than two categories. It works for two categories, it's just that there is a simpler technique for that -- two-sample t. To show ANOVA works for two categories, see if pulse rate before depends on Sex.

Expert Solution

Running a One way ANOVA, using excel, to test whether pulse rate before depends on Sex. Let denote the mean 'Pulse rate before' of Males and Frmales respectively.

We have to test:

H0: Pulse rate before has no dependency on Sex Ha: Pulse rate before depends on Sex

i.e

Vs

Running a One way ANOVA

We get the output:

We find that the ANOVA is significant with F = 7.98, p-value = 0.006 < 0.06. We may reject H0 at 5% level. We ,may arrve at the conclusion that the data provides sufficient evidence to support the claim that pulse rate before depends on Sex.

To verify, by running an independene sample t test:

We get the output:

We arrive at the same conclusion, where the test is found to be significant with t = 2.825, p-value = 0.006< 0.05.

Consider your dissertation research interests. Identify one categorical/nominal scale IV with more than 2 categories, and three DVs that are measured on continuous scales. Think of DV measures that probably are moderately correlated with each other because they are measuring different components of the same or similar concepts (e.g., three different measures of academic performance).

A new drug has been developed to treat a particular condition, and it is alleged to be more effective than traditional treatment. An experiment will be conducted to test whether the claim is true. To perform the hypothesis test, a 99% confidence level is selected for the hypothesis test. The new drug will be administered to a sample of 200 individuals with the condition, selected at random. Another 300 individuals are randomly selected to receive the traditional treatment. Of...
