ONEWAY ANOVA: SMOKING by AGE (CORR SAMP)


$\begin{array} { l c c c r r } & \text { SUM OF } & \text { MEAN } & & \\ \text { SOURCE } & \text { SQUARES } & \text { DF } & \text { SQUARES } & \text { F RATIO } & \text { PROB. } \\ \text { AGE } & 22.87 & 2 & 11.43 & 6.76 & .006 \\\text { SUBJECTS } & 879.63 & 9 & 97.74 & 34.71 & .000 \\\text { WITHIN CELLS } & 30.47 & 18 & 1.69 & & \\\text { TOTAL } & 932.97 & 29 & & & \end{array}$


POST HOC TEST: Tukey-HSD with significance level .05
* Indicates significant differences shown for pairings
$\begin{array} { l l l } \mathrm { G } & \mathrm { G } & \mathrm { G } \\ \mathrm { r } & \mathrm { r } & \mathrm { r } \\ \mathrm { p } & \mathrm { p } & \mathrm { p } \\ 1 & 2 & 3 \end{array}$


$\begin{array}{ll}\text { Mean } & \mathrm{AGE}\\9.70 & \text { Grp } 1 \\10.40 & \text { Grp 2 } \\11.80 & \text { Grp } 3\end{array}$
-Consult Table 11-1. Why are the degrees of freedom between groups equal to 2?

• A) Because there are two groups.
• B) Because there are three groups.
• C) Because there are two significant differences.
• D) Because the formula for df between is always 1 + 1.
