Lab 10 Activity FOR THE FIRST BULLET POINT: Report the results for each analysis in the correct format.  For example: r (18) = .35, p = .024 FOR THE SECOND BULLET POINT: Next, write up a few sentences describing the results for each analysis that you did.  Report the value of each statistic, degrees of freedom, and p-value and indicate whether this is significant. Additionally, for t-tests and ANOVA report the means for each level of the independent variable. The powerpoints for Lab 9 and Lab 10 provide information on how to format the results! 1. T-tests looking at differences between men and women on 1) anxiety, and 2) exam scores. ·         For anxiety: t(16)=2.656, p= .559                         For exam scores:  t(16)= -2.235, p=.951     ·     An independent samples t-test was conducted to compare the differences between men and women on anxiety and exam scores. For men, there was a significant difference for anxiety t(16)=2.656, p= .559 (M=3.3889,SD=1.26930) as they held more anxiety than their women counterparts  t(16)=2.656, p= .559, (M=5.111, SD=1.47432). For men and women there was not a significant difference in exam scores. For men,  t(16)= -2.235, p=.951 , (M=83.5556, SD=2.46143). For women, t(16)= -2.235, p=.951 , (M=75.4444, SD=2.66725). 2. An ANOVA on exam scores among the three coffee groups. You will need to conduct Tukey posthoc tests as part of this analysis. ·F(2,15)=8.209, p=.004           · A one-way between-groups ANOVA was conducted comparing exam score among three coffee groups. The overall omnibus test was significant F(2,15)=8.209, p<.004. Post-hoc comparisons using Tukey’s HSD indicated that Group 1 ( M = 75.3333, SD = 4.67618) ( p < .004). Group 2  ( M = 88, SD =6.48074)(p<.004). Group 3 ( M = 75.1667, SD = 7.41395) (p<.004) .           3. Pearson correlation between anxiety and exam score. ·          r(18)= 1, p= .029 We calculated a Pearson product-moment correlation to examine the relation between anxiety and exam score.. We found a correlation between anxiety and exam scores.   r (18) = 1, p = .029 . ·          
4. Simple regression analysis predicting exam score from anxiety. ·           2 = .264 R 2 = 26.4 The level of anxiety does not explain a significant amount of variance in exam scores reported., R 2 = 26.4 b = slope, t (df) = t-statistic, p = p-value b = -2.745, t (17) =-2.396 ., p = .015. The level of anxiety is a statistically significant predictor of exam score. , b = -2.745, t (17) = .-2.396, p = .015 ·           Information needed to fill out homework: *replace numbers with your data found* Reporting Correlation Results: r (N) = r , p = p-value r (41) = .13, p = .422 We calculated a Pearson product-moment correlation to examine the relation between the number of hours watching television a week and the number of movies seen in the past month. We found no correlation between the hours watching television and the number of movies seen last month, r (41) = .13, p = .422 . Reporting Regression Results; R 2 = R-squared value R 2 = 1.7%. The number of movies one has seen in the past month does not explain a significant amount of variance in the amount of TV one watches, R 2 = 1.7%. b = slope, t (df) = t-statistic, p = p-value b = 0.22, t (40) = .81, p = .422. The number of movies one has seen in the past month is not a statistically significant predictor of television viewing, b = 0.22, t (40) = .81, p = .422. Reporting Independent t-test: t (df) = t-value, p = XXX
An independent samples t-test was conducted to compare the mean hours TV watching for on- campus and commuter students. There was a significant difference t (39) = 2.82, p = .008 as on campus students ( M = 14.44, SD = 8.56) watched more TV per week than commuter students ( M = 7.39, SD = 7.46) . Reporting Anova: F (dfn,dfd) = F-value, p = .XX Must report significant follow-up tests with means & standard deviations. A one-way between-groups ANOVA was conducted comparing year in school measured as sophomore, junior, and senior to age in years. The overall omnibus test was significant F (2,38) = 50.92, p < .001 . Post-hoc comparisons using Tukey’s HSD indicated that sophomores ( M = 18.88, SD = .33) were significantly ( p < .001) younger than both juniors ( M = 20.05, SD =.41) and seniors ( M = 20.40, SD = .55) . Juniors and senior’s ages did not differ significantly ( p = .199). Lab 10 Activity Scenario Dr. Jones is interested in the relation between anxiety before an exam and performance on the exam as well as the effects of drinking coffee on exam anxiety and performance. She therefore conducts an experiment in which she randomly splits her statistics class of 18 students into three groups. Prior to the final exam, which was given at 7:30 am, she has students in Group 1 drink no coffee, students in Group 2 one cup of coffee, and students in Group 3 two cups of coffee. She waits 10 minutes and then gives students a questionnaire about the amount of anxiety they are feeling before they take the exam. After the exams are graded, she records the grades that each student earns on the exam. She also measures students’ gender (woman = 0, man = 1) to see if there are gender differences in anxiety and test scores and whether a relation between anxiety and exam performance exists after accounting for gender (potential third variable).
