Assessment
The lab report requires you to conduct and present in APA style (at least) one of each of the types of ANOVA models covered by the tutorials, i.e.,
- t-test: one-sample, independent, or paired
- One-way ANOVA
- Factorial ANOVA
- Repeated-measures ANOVA
- ANCOVA
- MANOVA
You may use any dataset.
The sections for the report and their weighting will be as follows:
| Section | Notes | Weighting |
|---|---|---|
| Introduction | Include title and abstract. Identify research question, explain key terms/constructs, and provide major references. State clear hypotheses. | 10% |
| Method | Provide brief participant overview, background to instrumentation, and brief procedure. | 10% |
| Results | Structure results by the types of analyses; for each, consider recoding, descriptives, graph, table, and description of inferential and effect size results | 60% |
| Discussion | Interpret the results, their strengths and limitations, and implications. | 20% |
APA style will be marked within each section.
No lower or upper word limit; parsimony/succintness is ideal.
