Module 4 – Mixed ANOVA

In this assignment, a mixed ANOVA test was conducted to study male/female stimulus smile detection accuracy. The test was conducted using SPSS.

The descriptive statistics results showed that males accurately detected male smiles (M = 9.96, SD = 2.82) better than females accurately detected male smiles (M = 8.69, SD = 2.63). On the other hand, females accurately detected female smiles (M = 6.23, SD = 2.78) better than males accurately detected female smiles (M = 5.22, SD = 2.00).

The mixed ANOVA results showed there was a significant main effect of smiles, F (1,47) = 38.18, p < .001, η2 = .45. This indicates the detection accuracy of smiles were significantly different irrespective of the gender of the participant. The main effect of gender participant was not significant, F (1,47) = .08, p = .79, η2 = .002. This indicates if we ignore the smiles, male and female participants did not significantly differ in their detection accuracy. The interaction effect between smiles and gender participant was not significant F (1,47) = 3.82, p = .06, η2 = .08, indicating if we ignore whether the smile is from a male or female, male and female participants did not significantly differ in their detection accuracy of male smiles or female smiles.
