1 CHAPTER ANALYSIS O VARIANCE MULTIPLE CHOICE QUESTIONS In the following multiple choice que s tions, plea s e circle the correc t answ e r.. In one way ANOVA, the amo u n t of total variation that is unexplain e d is me a s u r e d by the: a. sum of squ ar e s for treat m e n t s b. sum of squ ar e s for error c. total sum of squ ar e s d. degr e e s of freedo m b. The test statistic of the single factor ANOVA equ als a. Sum of squ ar e s for treat m e n t s / Sum of squa r e s for error b. Sum of squ ar e s for error / Sum of squ ar e s for tre a t m e n t s c. Mean squ ar e for treat m e n t s / Mean squa r e for error d. Mean squ ar e for error / Mean squa r e for tre a t m e n t s c. Which of the following stat e m e n t s is false? a. The sum of squ ar e s for tre a t m e n t s (T) explains som e of the variation. b. The sum of squ ar e s for error (E) me a s u r e s the am ou n t of variation that is unexplain e d. c.

2 . Chapter ifteen In one way ANOVA, suppo s e that ther e are four tre a t m e n t s with n =, n = 6, n =, and n =. Then the rejection region for this test at the % level of significanc e is a. > 0.0,,0 b. > 0.0,,0 c. > 0.0,,6 d. > 0.0,,6 d. In an ANOVA test, the test statistic is = 6.7.

In a two tail pooled varianc e t test (equ al varianc e s t test), the null and altern a tive hypot h e s e s are exactly the sa m e as in one way ANOVA with a. exactly one treat m e n t b. exactly two treat m e n t s c. exactly thre e treat m e n t s d. any num b e r of treat m e n t s b 7. Which of the following is not a require d condition for one way ANOVA? a. The sa m pl e sizes mus t be equ al b. The population s mus t all be nor m ally distribut e d c.

A study will be und er t a k e n to exa mi n e the effect of two kinds of backgro u n d music and of two ass e m bly met ho d s on the output of worker s at a fitne s s shoe factory. Two worker s will be rando mly assign e d to eac h of four groups, for a total of eight in the study. Each worker will be given a he a d p h o n e set so that the music type can be controlled. The num b e r of shoe s com pl e t e d by each worker will be record e d. Does the kind of music or the ass e m bly met h o d or a com bin a tion of music and me t h o d affect output? The ANOVA mod el most likely to fit this situa tion is the two way analysis of varianc e. T 7. The sum of squ ar e s for error is also known as the betw e e n trea t m e n t s variation. 7. Two sa m pl e s of ten each from the male and fem al e worker s of a large com p a n y have been take n. The dat a involved the wag e rate of eac h worker. To test whet h e r ther e is any differe nc e in the aver a g e wag e rat e betw e e n male and fem al e worker s a pooled varianc e s t test will be consid er e d. Another test option to conside r is ANOVA. The most likely ANOVA to fit this test situation is the rando miz e d block design. 7. We do not need the t test of µ µ, since the analysis of varianc e can be used to test the differenc e betw e e n the two popula tion me a n s. 7. Concep t u ally and mat h e m a t i c ally, the test of the indep e n d e n t single factor ANOVA is an exte n sion of the t test of µ µ. T 76.
