Group 1 = Group 2 = Group 3 = Group 4 How do we test the null hypothesis? By calculating an F-ratio - Analysis of Variance (ANOVA) If the F-ratio is significant, how do we know which groups are different from one another? • There are two approaches for finding out • Post hoc tests • A priori tests
Post Hoc Tests Group 1 = 70 Group 2 = 72 Group 3 = 83 Group 4 = 75 Group 1 vs. Group 2 Group 1 vs. Group 3 Group 1 vs. Group 4 Group 2 vs. Group 3 Group 2 vs. Group 4 Group 3 vs. Group 4 * * * * p < .05

Effects in Factorial Designs • Main effects • Treatment differences between levels of 1 IV • Interaction effects • Result of combination of two IVs • There are many null hypotheses in factorial designs • There are no differences in test scores due to the amount of Pepsi consumed. • There are no differences in test scores due to the time of day the test was taken. • There are no interaction effects between amount of Pepsi consumed and time of day the test was taken.
Graphing Main and Interaction Effects No main or interaction effects
Significant Pepsi Effects No time or interaction effects
Significant Time Effects No Pepsi or interaction effects
Significant Interaction Effect No main effects
Significant Pepsi & Time Effects No interaction effect
R Group 1 T (4 beers) M R Group 2 T (No beer) M Within-Subject Designs • Important Factors in Experimental Design • Groups must be equal before treatment • Use random assignment • Try to reduce within-group (error) variance • Expose same subjects to each level of treatment. Example: Effect of beer on dart throwing
