ANOVA

In many ways, comparing multiple sample means is simply an extension of what we covered last week.  Just as we had 3 versions of the t-test (1 sample, 2 sample (with and without equal variance), and paired; we have several versions of ANOVA – single factor, factorial (called 2-factor with replication in Excel), and within-subjects (2-factor without replication in Excel). What examples (professional, personal, social) can you provide on when we might use each type?  What would be the appropriate hypotheses statements for each example?

Guided Response:  Review several of your classmates’ posts.  Respond to at least two classmates by commenting on why you agree or disagree with the statistical test that your peers have described as appropriate in this scenario.
