RESEARCH SCENARIO:

1.    A randomized study was conducted comparing the effects of repetition on recall. Conditions included the following number of repetitions per list of words: 5 times, 10 times, 15 times, and 20 times.

(a) What is (are) the factor(s) in this study?: number of repetitions per list of words

(b) How many levels (if any) does (do) the factor(s) have? 4

(c) What is the dependent variable? recall

           

2.    What is the research design? : completely randomized design

3.    What is the appropriate hypothesis test to analyze these data?

Ho: There is no effect of repetition on recall

H1: There is a effect of repetition on recall

4.    In which source of variance would you expect the treatment effect?

Between-treatments variance (Values used to measure and describe the differences between treatments or mean differences).
