Question

Susan conducted a study with three groups and two independent variables (Intelligence - low average, average, above average) and reading method (phonics or whole word)). She used an Analysis of Variance (ANOVA) for her analysis. The results of her analysis indicated that she had a significant main effect for reading method (whole word was significant), and a significant main effect for intelligence (above average was significant). What can Susan conclude based on her results about reading methods and intelligence?

Explanation / Answer

The results show that the reading methods and intelligence are related. The intelligence depends on the whole word reading method, it means that the level of intelligence will be higher when the subject used to apply the whole word method, in other words, significant learning depends on the right reading method. That’s why the variables indicate a significant relationship between both. Also, the variables are positive related, because, when one increases the other increases too.
