The following is an incomplete F-table summarizing the results of a study of the variance of life satisfaction scores among unemployed, retired, part-time, and full-time employees. (a) Complete the F-table. (Round your values for mean squares and F to two decimal places.) (b) Compute omega-squared (omega^2). () (c) Is the decision to retain or reject the null hypothesis? (Assume alpha equal to 0.05.) Retain the null hypothesis. Reject the null hypothesis. You may need to use the appropriate table in Appendix B to answer this question.
