Two Way ANOVA A way to look at the effects of two independent variables and their interactions.
Research Designs The study has two independent variables, factor 1 (e.g. personality) and factor 2 (e.g. situation) Each factor has a certain number of levels (e.g. 2 personality traits and 2 situations). They are completely crossed to create the appropriate number of conditions (e.g. 2 traits X 2 situations = 4 cells)
Research Designs Factor 1: Half the participants have personality trait A and half the participants have trait B Factor 2: Half the participants were observed in private and half were observed in public Dependent variable: amount of food consumed
