They have a group of 20 participants. All 20 get measured at the beginning of the study, and measured again at the completion of the reading program. This is an example of a: Within subjects study Between subjects study A correlation study A mixed design study The main difference between an ANOVA and a t-test is: Group of answer choices An ANOVA can look at more than 2, and t-test looks at only 2 means at a time An ANOVA looks at only 2 means at a time, and t-test can look at more than 2 A t-test can have nominal dependent variables An ANOVA can have a nominal dependent variablearrow_forward

Explain why an independent samples t-test was used, and give your own example of a research study in which an independent samples t-test would be the appropriate statistical analysis.arrow_forwardA researcher is interested in examining the relationship between spousal abuse and child abuse.

Choose the correct answer below. O A. It does not make sense to construct confidence or prediction intervals based on the least-squares regression equation because there is a linear relationship between sugar content and calories in high-protein and moderate protein energy bars. O B. It does not make sense to construct confidence or prediction intervals based on the least-squares regression equation because there is no linear relationship between sugar content and calories in high-protein and moderate protein energy bars.
