5. An experiment was conducted to determine whether a test designed to identify a certain form of mental illness could be easily interpreted with little psychological training. The test was given to 100 people (half of which had the illness, and half did not) and fifteen people were asked to evaluate them. The fifteen judges were five staff members of a mental hospital, five trainees at the hospital, and five undergraduate psychology majors. The results in the table give the number of the 100 tests correctly classified by each judge. Analyze the data with the Kruskal-Wallis or Friedman test statistics. a) Is there evidence to suggest that there are differences between staff, trainees, and students to interpret the test? b) Briefly write a short report of your findings
