Question: Bring to mind a real-world situation or problem that could be addressed using a one-way analysis of variance (ANOVA). You will not need SPSS to complete this Discussion question.

? For this situation or problem:

o Clearly identify the independent and dependent variables you would study, including the number of levels of the independent variable.

o Generate the statistical null and alternative hypotheses.

o Describe what information the effect size would tell you that the probability value would not tell you.

o Explain what additional information confidence intervals around means (or around mean differences) would give your reader.

o Explain when would you need to report a post hoc test and why.

o Using realistic numbers for values of degrees of freedom, sample size, F-ratio, and confidence interval(s) (if appropriate), and post hoc results (if appropriate), report hypothetical results in a few sentences using correct APA format.
