a. Three main effects, three two-way interactions and a three-way interaction

b. Three main effects and a three-way interaction

c. Three main effects and three two-way interactions

d. A three-way interaction

Type: multiple choice question

Title: Chapter 30 Question 2

2) When do you use a multiple analysis of variance (MANOVA)?

a. When you try to find out whether multiple levels of independent variables on their own or in combination with one another affect one dependent variable while controlling for confounding variables

b. When you compare means from more than two conditions while controlling for confounding variables

c. When you try to find out whether multiple levels of independent variables on their own or in combination with one another affect several dependent variables

d. When you try to find out whether multiple levels of independent variables on their own or in combination with one another affect one dependent variable

Type: multiple choice question

Title: Chapter 30 Question 3

3) What is an advantage of using MANOVA?

a. It can be applied for any distribution.

b. It controls confounding variables.

c. It eliminates variation between the samples.

d. It detects relationships between multiple dependent variables.

Type: multiple choice question

Title: Chapter 30 Question 4

4) How can you include categorical predictor variables with more than two levels in a regression analysis?

a. By using estimated marginal means

b. You cannot include categorical predictor variables with more than two levels in a regression analysis.

c. By dummy variable modelling

d. By using a non-parametric equivalent of a regression analysis

Type: multiple choice question

Title: Chapter 30 Question 5

5) How do you calculate interactive predictors in regression models?

a. (Binary variable 1) Continuous variable

b. (Binary variable + 1) Continuous variable

Type: multiple choice question

Title: Chapter 30 Question 6

6) Imagine, you have an experiment where you want to see how accurately people from three age groups who listen to three types of music try to identify the emotion being expressed by that music. This would be 3x3 mixed design ANOVA. However, you want to also test whether these effects are also found in participant’s reaction times to the stimuli. What kind of variable would that be?

a. Continuous variable

b. Ratio variable

c. Independent variable

d. Dependent variable

Type: multiple choice question

Title: Chapter 30 Question 7

7) If you were to run a 2 3 4 mixed ANOVA, how many two-way interactions would you get from the analysis?

a. Four two-way interactions

b. Two two-way interactions

c. One two-way interaction

d. Three two-way interactions

Type: multiple choice question

Title: Chapter 30 Question 8

8) What is the difference between MANOVA and ANOVA?

a. MANOVA is an ANOVA with more than three independent variables.

b. MANOVA is another name for a three-way ANOVA.

c. MANOVA has no independent variables but has more than one dependent variable.

d. MANOVA is an ANOVA with multiple dependent variables.

Type: multiple choice question

Title: Chapter 30 Question 9

9) What is an interactive predictor?

a. A predictor that represents the relationship between two outcome variables

b. A predictor that represents the relationship between two predictor variables

c. A predictor that represents the relationship between a predictor variable and an outcome variable

d. A predictor that represents the relationship between two outcome variables

Type: multiple choice question
