Quantitative Methods
The results from a two-factor experiment can be presented in a matrix with the levels of one factor forming the rows and the levels of the second factor forming the columns, with a separate sample in each of the matrix cells. Using this matrix structure, describe what is meant by the “main effect” for each factor and the “interaction” between factors.
The following data were obtained from a two factor independent-measures experiment with n=5 participants in each treatment condition.

a. State the hypotheses for each of the three separate tests included in the two-way ANOVA.
b. Calculate degrees of freedom and locate the critical region for each of the three tests.
