Sol:
1).
Dependent variable is the Number of units sold because the researcher wants to test whether the number of units sold is influenced by the employee type and orientation training
Factor A or first independent variable is the type of employee, i.e. full time employee or part time employee.
Level of Factor A (p) = 2 because there are two type of employees, i.e. part time employees and full time employees
Factor B or second independent variable is the orientation training, i.e. whether the employee has received the orientation training or not.
Level of factor B(q) = 2 because there are two possible outcome for orientation, i.e. either employee has received orientation training or employee didnt received orientation training.
Number of cells = p*q
where p =2 and q =2
So, number of cells = 2*2 = 4
2).
Dependent Variable: Perception.
Factor A: Motivational bias.
Levels of Factor A: Neutral fan, home fan, and away fan.
Factor B: (There is only one factor in this study)
Number of groups: Three groups.
3).
Dependent variable: Class attendance.
Factor A: Quiz frequency.
Levels of Factor A: Every class and once a week.
Factor B: Class timing.
Levels of Factor B: Morning and evening.
Number of groups: 4.
4).

Factor A: Twins type.
Levels of Factor A: Fraternal and identical.
Factor B: Twins gender.
Levels of Factor B: Male and female.
Number of groups: 4.
