Questions and Answers

What is the experimental design of the researcher's study?

  • Between-subjects
  • Case-control study
  • Within-subjects (correct)
  • Mixed design

What is the purpose of the Sphericity test in this study?

  • To determine the sample size required for the study
  • To analyze the interaction between lighting and alcohol
  • To identify the effect of lighting on maze navigation
  • To check for violations of the assumption of sphericity (correct)

Why is there no p-value for the factor lighting in the sphericity test?

  • Sphericity is severely violated for the factor lighting
  • The sample size is too small to produce a p-value
  • Sphericity cannot be violated for the factor lighting (correct)
  • The researcher made an error in data entry
