Suppose a researcher wants to know if there is a significant difference in aptitude scores based on a recruits’ fitness level. Recruits are ranked on a scale of 1 – 3 for fitness (1 = lowest fitness category, 3 = highest fitness category). Using “ApScore” as your dependent variable and “FitGroup” as your independent variable, conduct a One-Way, Between Subjects, ANOVA, at α = 0.05, to see if there is a significant difference on the aptitude test between fitness groups.    Identify the correct symbolic notation for the null hypothesis. A. H0: µ1 = µ2 = µ3 B. HA: µ1 ≠ µ2 ≠ µ3 C. H0: µ1 = µ2 D. HA: µ1 ≠ µ2

A police academy has just brought in a batch of new recruits.  All recruits are given an aptitude test and a fitness test. Suppose a researcher wants to know if there is a significant difference in aptitude scores based on a recruits’ fitness level. Recruits are ranked on a scale of 1 – 3 for fitness (1 = lowest fitness category, 3 = highest fitness category). Using “ApScore” as your dependent variable and “FitGroup” as your independent variable, conduct a One-Way, Between Subjects, ANOVA, at α = 0.05, to see if there is a significant difference on the aptitude test between fitness groups. 

 

Identify the correct symbolic notation for the null hypothesis.


  • A. H0: µ1 = µ2 = µ3
  • B. HA: µ1 ≠ µ2 ≠ µ3
  • C. H0: µ1 = µ2
  • D. HA: µ1 ≠ µ2
