[SOLVED] ANOVA APPLICATION AND INTERPRETATION

“Instructions
Complete the following for this assignment:
 For this assignment you will use the Data Analysis and Application
template (DAA Template [DOC]).
 For help with SPSS, refer to IBM SPSS Step-by-Step Guide: One-Way
ANOVA [DOC].
 For help copying SPSS output into your DAA, review the Copy/Export
Output Instructions [HTML].
 For information on the data set, you may find the Data Set Instructions
[DOC] helpful.
 Refer to the 7864 Course Study Guide for information on analyses and
interpretation.

The  grades.sav  file is a sample SPSS data set. The data represent a teacher's
recording of student demographics and performance on quizzes and a final exam
across three sections of the course. Each section consists of 35 students (N =
105). There are 21 variables in  grades.sav .
This week’s assignment is on ANOVA. You will analyze the following variables in
the  grades.sav  data set:
SPSS Variable Definition
Section Class section
Quiz3 Quiz 3: number of correct answers
Step 1: Write Section 1 of the DAA: The Data Analysis Plan
 Name the variables used in this analysis and whether they are categorical
or continuous.
 State a research question, null hypothesis, and alternate hypothesis for the
analysis of variance (ANOVA).
Step 2: Write Section 2 of the DAA: Testing Assumptions

Test for one of the assumptions of ANOVA – normality.
 Create SPSS output showing the Shapiro-Wilk test of normality. Run the
Shapiro-Wilk test on the dependent variable test for the entire sample. Do
not split the data up by gender before running the normality test.
 Paste the table in the DAA.
 Interpret the Shapiro-Wilk test and how you determined whether the
assumption of normality was met or violated.
Step 3: Write Section 3 of the DAA: Results and Interpretation
 Paste the following SPSS tables into the document:
o Descriptives table
o ANOVA table
o Multiple Comparison table
 Report the means and standard deviations of quiz3 for each group of the
section variable.
 Report the results of the F test and interpret the statistical results against
the null hypothesis and state whether it is accepted or rejected.
 Finally, if the F is significant, interpret the post-hoc tests (multiple
comparisons).
Step 4: Write Section 4 of the DAA: Statistical Conclusions
 Provide a brief summary of your analysis and the conclusions drawn about
this ANOVA.
 Analyze the limitations of the statistical test and/or possible alternative
explanations for your results.
Step 5: Write Section 5 of the DAA: Application
Analyze how you might use the ANOVA in your field of study.
 Name an independent variable (the IV should have three or more
groups/categories) and dependent variable that would work for such an
analysis and why studying it may be important to the field or practice.

Submit your DAA template as an attached Word document in the assignment
area.”
