Question
A study compared three groups of college students (soccer athletes, nonsoccer athletes, and a comparison group of non-athletes) to investigate the effects of head injuries on memory recall. The study assessed scores from the Hopkins Verbal Learning Test.

The table below displays the sample size, mean scores, and standard deviations for each group:

| Group                   | Soccer Athletes | Nonsoccer Athletes | Comparison Group |
|-------------------------|-----------------|--------------------|------------------|
| Sample size             | 89              | 99                 | 54               |
| Sample mean score       | 29.80           | 30.97              | 29.31            |
| Sample standard deviation | 3.72           | 5.19               | 3.79             |

The study posits that the samples are random from each group. The goal is to determine if there is sufficient evidence to conclude that the mean Hopkins score differs among the groups, using \(\alpha = 0.05\).

**Hypotheses:**
\( \mu_1, \mu_2, \mu_3 \) represent the true means for the groups.

1. \( H_0 \): All three means (\(\mu_1, \mu_2, \mu_3\)) are equal.
   \( H_a \): At least two of the three means are different.

2. \( H_0 \): At least two of the three means are equal.
   \( H_a \): All three means are different.

Find the test statistic (F-value) and p-value using statistical software. Round the test statistic to two decimal places and the p-value to three decimal places:

\( F = \_\_\_\_ \)

\( p\text{-value} = \_\_\_\_ \)

**Conclusion Options:**

- Reject \( H_0 \): There is convincing evidence that the means are not the same across the three groups.
- Fail to reject \( H_0 \): There is not convincing evidence that the means differ across the groups.
