What assumption does ANCOVA have that ANOVA does not?
Responda
Homogeneity of variance
All assumptions of ANCOVA can be applied to ANOVA
Homogeneity of regression slopes
Assumptions of normality
Questão 2
Questão
ANCOVA is __________
Responda
A robust version of ANOVA
An extension of ANOVA that partials out the effect of other measured variables
A method of portioning the results of ANOVAs to investigate where differences between independent variables lie
Used to correct for unmeasured variables that could affect the outcome variable
Questão 3
Questão
A researcher conducted a study to examine whether people’s attachment styles are associated with differences in relationship satisfaction. Participants were divided into three groups according to their attachment styles (secure, dismissing, and fearful) and their relationship satisfaction was measured. Depression levels were also measured, as it is known that relationship satisfaction covaries with depression. Which variable should the researcher use as a covariate in the data analysis?
Responda
Depression
Relationship satisfaction
Attachment style
Secure attachment
Questão 4
Questão
Regarding the study described in Question 3, which of the below questions would be relevant to the data analysis?
Responda
What would the mean depression score be for the three groups of attachment styles if their levels of relationship satisfaction were constant?
What would the mean relationship satisfaction be if levels of depression were constant?
Does relationship satisfaction have a significant effect on the relationship between attachment and depression?
What would the means of the groups be on relationship satisfaction if their levels of depression were constant?
Questão 5
Questão
What problem do you foresee with the study described in Question 3?
Responda
Depression might also be related to attachment style
It is likely that the regression lines will be parallel
There could be more than three groups
It is likely that there will be a linear association between depression and relationship satisfaction
Questão 6
Questão
The larger the F statistic, the larger the _____________ compared to the _________
Responda
Variation between groups; total variation
Variation between groups; variation within groups
Total variation; variation between groups
Variation within groups; variation between groups
Questão 7
Questão
A covariate is best described as _________
Responda
A variable that is related to the independent variable
A variable that is directly influenced by the dependent variable
A variable that is unrelated to all other variables in the study
A variable that is related to the dependent variable
Questão 8
Questão
A researcher wanted to see whether giving students caffeine would improve their memory. He gave all students a memory test, then he randomly assigned participants to two groups. One group received a caffeinated drink and the other group received a decaffeinated drink. Both groups then took another memory test (with different questions). The researcher used ANCOVA to analyse the data. Which variable was the covariate?
Responda
Score on the second memory test
Caffeine
There was no covariate
Score on the first memory test
