Question

ANOVA LAB

1. A volleyball coach noted that players who practiced jumping during practice time seemed to be able to jump higher in the games. He wondered if jumping practice was more or less effective than lower extremity weight training to increase vertical jump height.

For six weeks prior to the start of the season, he randomly divided his team into three groups of 10 players each. Group 1 (Control) practiced regularly without any special jumping or weight training. Group 2 (Jumping) spent the last 20 minutes of each practice session in jumping exercises, and Group 3 (Weight Training) spent the last 20 minutes of each practice session doing high resistance leg presses. The following are the results of the vertical jump test (in inches) taken two days before the first game.

The researcher proposes the following two hypotheses that they are interested in testing:

            1. Are the Weight Training and Jumping practices more effective than the Control?

            2. Are there differences between the Weight Training and Jumping practices?

For each, run a 5-step hypothesis test. Include your output with the ANOVA Summary Table.

Write up your conclusions in paragraph form and follow APA format.

Explanation / Answer

1)

Since p-value is 0.005669 < 0.05

we conclude that the Weight Training and Jumping practices more effective than the Control

2) Result of t-test Using Excel

since p-value for one-tail is   0.006892492 < .05

we reject the null and conclude that  there are differences between the Weight Training and Jumping practices

In fact Jumping is more effective
