a. Levene’s test
b. Tukey HSD test
c. Dunnett’s test
d. Correlated groups t-test
12. An ANOVA model with 2 levels of an IV was conducted and indicated a non-significant main effect. Specify why post-hoc analyses would not be conducted?
a. Post-hoc analyses are not necessary when the IV only has 2 levels.
b. Post-hoc analyses are not necessary following non-significant main effects.
c. Both post-hoc analyses are not necessary when the IV only has 2 levels and post-hoc analyses are not necessary following non-significant main effects.
d. None of these.
13. For an experiment comparing more than two treatment conditions, why should you use analysis of variance rather than separate t tests?
a. Separate t tests would require substantially more computations.
b. A test based on variances is more sensitive than a test based on means.
c. Conducting several t tests would inflate the risk of a Type I error.

c. 3 factors and 2 conditions.
d. 3 factors and 6 conditions.
18. What is p the probability of?
a. p is the probability that the results are due to chance, the probability that the null hypothesis (H0) is true.

c. p is the probability that the results would be replicated if the experiment was conducted a second time.
d. p is the probability that the results are not due to chance, the probability that the null hypothesis (H0) is false.
