In: Statistics and Probability
a hypothesis was made that students would preform better at an optimal amount of playtime.
selected 3 classes to be given a certain amount of playtime per day
class 1, 30 minutes of play
class 2, 60 minutes of play
class 3, 120 minutes of play
after 3 months all classes were given standardized tests (n=28) and resulting analysis revealed that SS between=56 and SS total=542
a) what is the value of a1+a2+a3
b) what is the value of a1^2+a2^2+a3^2
c) what are the calculated and tabled values of the f statistic
f calc=
f tabled=
Answer:
Step(1) Statement of hypothesis
H0- There is no difference between the play time of different classes
H1- There is statistically significant difference between the play time of different classes .
Step(2)- using the formula which is given in this screenshot below.
Step(3)- Since we get the following output
Anova Summary | |||||
Source | Degree of freedom | Sum of square | Mean square | F calculated | F tabulated |
Between Groups | 2 | 56 | 28 | 1.44033 |
3.38519 |
Within Groups | 25 | 486 | 19.44 | ||
Total: | 27 | 542 | 20.0741 |
Since Fcal < F tab we have no enough evidence against the null hypothesis hence we do not reject H0
F cal = 1.44033
F tab = 3.38519
* define a1,a2,a3
