Psy 420 – Midterm 2 Part 2 (Version A) – In lab (50 points total)A researcher wants to know if memory is improved by repetition (Duh!). So he shows a group of five participants a list of 30 words at for different time points. At each time point the participants are given a free recall task. The number of words recalled at each trial is recorded below for each participant.

Based on the output is (Time1 and Time 4) vs. (Time 2 and Time 3) a significant comparison? How do you know (it’s right in front of you so think about it)? And how much percent of variance is accounted for by this comparison? No calculations involved. (2 points) 2. Perform a comparison of (Time 1 and Time 2) vs. (Time 3 and Time 4) by hand and test it for significance. Show all work. (6 points)The pharmaceutical companies are trying to figure out which is the best medication to treat erectile dysfunction (ED), Viagra (Drug 1) and Levitra (Drug 2). An independent company conducts clinical trials to test the treatments using three trials per treatment with 10 participants. Scores indicate the number of hours that the “treatment” lasted.

Did we meet the sphericity assumption for all variables? How do you know? Why isn’t sphericity test for the Drug variable? (2 points) 4. Create an ANOVA summary table that looks a little more like we’re used to. Include all sources of variance. (3 points) Source SS DF MS F Total 5. Why is there a main effect for trial (where are the differences?)? When describing it include the directionality of the comparison. (4 points). 6. Base on the line graph why is there a significant interaction (in words)? (2 points)7. Based on the significant effects what other follow-up analysis(es) would you perform (in words)? (1 point) An experimenter is doing a study where variable A is a between groups variable and variables B and C are within
