An [blank_start]ANOVA[blank_end] assesses whether the means of several groups are all equal to or different from each other

What are the three categories of research design?

[blank_start]Random factors[blank_end] are a sample of a larger population of levels

[blank_start]MANOVA[blank_end] is used when there is more than one response variable

[blank_start]Fixed factors[blank_end] are chosen for their specific level/type.

[blank_start]Effect size[blank_end] measures the strength of the phenomenon

3 qualities of a good hypothesis:

A true experiment always uses

One of the problems with [blank_start]quasi experiments[blank_end] is that they have a high chance of the third variable problem that the groups they are comparing are fundamentally different in some way.

[blank_start]Ex post facto[blank_end] design compares two or more groups on a variable of interest, but those groups vary in some important way.
