About: In this assignment, you will be looking at statistical output for the ANOVA. The objective is to apply your understanding of how the ANOVA and hypothesis testing works to tell us whether we have a significant relationship between our variables. You will analyze provided data and write a report explaining the populations, variables, which one is the independent and dependent variable, and the results of the ANOVA hypothesis test.
Directions: Select ONE scenarios provided after the directions and complete the following report for your scenario.
Introduction (100 words minimum)
Explain what the independent and dependent variable is in your scenario
Provide the Null and Research hypothesis as based on the two variables provided
Methods (50 words minimum)
Descriptive Statistics: describe the observable differences between the groups (in other words compare their means)
State and briefly explain the f-statistic results (F-statistic and p-value in particular)
NOTE: YOU DO NOT HAVE TO CALCULATE ANY VALUES, ALL VALUES ARE PROVIDED IN THE STATISTICAL OUTPUT
3. Results (100 words minimum)
Interpret the results by explaining where there is a statistically significant relationship or not.
Make sure to state whether we accept or reject the null hypothesis.
Make sure to explain whether this means the two variables are statistically related or not.
4. Discussion (100 words minimum)
Provide some thoughts and considerations on why we obtained the results
Consider at least two additional variables that can explain the results
Clearly and fully explain how the additional variables can affect the results
Word Count: Your report should be about 350 words minimum! Include your word count at the end of your post.
Scenarios: Similar to our previous lab, here are some scenarios of various statistical outputs involving the ANOVA. Select ONE of the following to complete your assignment
ANOVA Lab Scenario 1: Days of Poor Mental Health by Religiousness
ANOVA Lab Scenario 2: Hours of TV by Level of Happiness
