(14 marks) Fortune magazine publishes a list of the world’s billionaires each year. We will examine the top 97 of the 1992 list. Their wealth, age, and geographic location (Asia, Europe, Middle East, United States, and Other) are reported. Wealth is a right-skewed variable, so we will consider the natural logarithm log wealth to be the response and will see if age and geographic location are predictors.
(a) (2 marks) Let
Ebe a variable that is 1 if the person is from Europe and 0 otherwise,
Mbe a variable that is 1 if the person is from the Middle East and 0 otherwise,
Obe a variable that is 1 if the person is from the “Other” region and 0 otherwise,
and
Ube a variable that is 1 if the person is from the United States and 0 otherwise.
State a linear model for the mean of log wealth that includes age and the above 4
geographic variables. Call this the full model.
(b) (5 marks) The SSY for these data is 28.3351 and the SSE from fitting the full model
is 27.0461. Use this information to construct an ANOVA table. Your table should
include columns for Source, df, SS, MS and F, and should include rows for the model
(full model), residual and total.
(c) (2 marks) In addition to the full model, the reduced model that includes only an
intercept and age is fit. What is the null hypothesis being considered by fitting these
two models? (Refer to quantities defined in your model.)
(d) (3 marks) The SSM from the reduced model is 59.7. Calculate an F-statistic to test the hypothesis of part (c). State the degrees of freedom for the F-distribution
you would compare this statistic to. (You do not need to calculate the p-value or actually test the hypothesis.)
(e) (1 mark) Using terminology from class, name the kind of Ftest that the statistic in part (d) corresponds to.
(f) (1 mark) If the null model for these data is compared to the model that includes an
intercept and age, what are the results?

QUESTION 1What is the purpose of post hoc tests? Under what circumstances are post hoc tests not needed or appropriate?

a. Under what circumstances is ANOVA a more appropriate statistical technique to use than a t test for independent samples? Please provide an example(s) to support your answer. (2 marks)

b.  (2 marks)

c. In testing the difference between group means, how are between group and within group variability related to each other? Provide an example to support your answer. (2 marks)

QUESTION 2

a. If a two-factor ANOVA results in a significant main effect for factor A and a significant AxB interaction, explain why you should be cautious in interpreting the effect of factor A. (1 mark)

b. For the following research situations what would be your main effects and interaction effect. If there was a significant interaction effect what would that mean? (please be as clear as possible in your explanation):

  1. A researcher hypothesizes that the effect of alcohol consumption on one’s motor skills depends on the person’s weight (underweight, normal, overweight), but that this may differ for men versus women. (2 marks)

  2. A teacher is interested in seeing how attending class and reading the assigned chapters is related to her students’ performance on tests. She assesses each student in terms of how often they attend class (rarely, sometimes, regularly) and how often they read the assigned chapters (rarely, sometimes, regularly). (2 marks)

QUESTION 3

Ethel is interested in two methods of note-taking strategies and the effect of these strategies on the overall GPAs of college freshmen. She believes that men would benefit most from Method 1, while women would benefit most from Method 2. After obtaining 30 men and 30 women volunteers in freshmen orientation, she randomly assigns 10 men and 10 women to Method 1, 10 men and 10 women to Method 2, and 10 men and 10 women to a control condition. During the first month of the spring semester individuals in the two note-taking method groups receive daily instruction on the particular note-taking method to which they were assigned. The control group receives no note-taking instruction. Fall and spring GPAs for all participants are recorded and a score that is the difference between the spring and fall semester GPAs is calculated.

Below are the results from running a two-way ANOVA. Please answer the following:

  1. What is the dependent variable? (0.5 marks)

  2. What are the independent variables (factors)? (0.5 marks)

  3. What is the research question(s) being addressed? (1 mark)

  4. What does the descriptive statistics (graphical) tell us about the effects under study?

    (1 mark)

  5. What assumptions are being tested in the R output? Are these assumptions met? Please

    provide statistical evidence. (2 marks)

  6. What effects are being tested in the R output? (1 mark)

  7. What does output from the ANOVA table tell us? (1 mark)

  8. What type of follow-up analyses was conducted and why? Please interpret. (2 marks)
