Lec 6 Flashcards
which has a higher likelihood of being significant? planned contrast or post hoc comparisons
planned contrasts
what is a planned contrast?
follow up test that compares placebo to treatment groups
can’t be changed
what is a post hoc comparison?
follow up test that compares all pairs of means
sphericity is only for _____ and must have ____ levels
repeated IV
>2 levels
what is sphericity?
the variances of differences b/w all possible pairs of groups are equal
what is the test for sphericity?
Mauchley’s test
do NOT want it to be significant`
when should the alpha be adjusted with an ANOVA?
when comparing the main effects
(SPSS adjusts for simple effects)
T/F: if there is a significant interaction in an ANOVA, you report the main effect
F
t-tests compare ___ means and have ___ IVs
2 means
1 IV
ANOVA compares ____ means and has _____ IVs
3+ means
>1 IV (factorial)
what study designs can you use a t-test for?
post-test only randomized and non-randomized
why can’t multiple t-test be ran?
inflates the type 1 error rate
what is an omnibus test?
an “overall test” that tests a number of different comparisons at once;
does not say where differences are
ex: global ANOVA
what is the statistic for an omnibus test?
F
the null hypothesis states
that there is NO difference
a one-way independent ANOVA has ____ IVs
1
a one-way repeated-measures ANOVA has ____ IVs
1 repeated
a 2 X 2 independent ANOVA has ____ IVs
2 or more independent IV
a 2 x 2 repeated-measures ANOVA has ____ IVs
2+ repeated IVs
a 2 x 2 mixed or split plot ANOVA has ____ IVs
2+ IV
at least 1 independent and 1 repeated
T/F: the calculated F stat alone has no meaning; a cut-off value is needed
T
F(2,12)=5.12, p=.025
how many groups?
how many participants?
critical F?
calculated F?
2 groups
12 participants
cannot determine critical F
calculated F = 5.12
what is a pairwise test?
only compares 2 means
ran after global ANOVA
what is the simple effects?
ran after global ANOVA AND significant interaction
