She decided to test this theory using an experiment. She randomly assigned 24 clients to receive either zero compliments, 5 compliments, or 10 compliments during their appointment. She recorded how many products they purchased after their appointment as her DV. She firstly hypothesised that no-compliment clients (M = 0.38) would purchase fewer products than clients who received 5 compliments (M = 1.50). She secondly hypothesised that 5-compliment clients would purchase fewer products than 10-compliment clients (M = 3.63). Thus, she conducted two comparisons. The initial ANOVA was significant. Using an alpha of .05, results for the follow-up tests confirmed her first hypothesis, with an obtained t value of 2.60, but did not confirm her second hypothesis, with an obtained t value of 1.20. She later realised that she did not use a Bonferroni-corrected…arrow_forward
