In this assignment:
• Define and describe and contrast the four variance analysis tools:
§ one-way ANOVA
§ ANCOVA
§ MANOVA
§ MANCOVA.
• Analyze and compare the Ibanez and Kunkel articles. Very briefly summarize each study. Then compare
and contrast the two articles identifying, specifically, the type of hypothesis(es), the analytical tools
(ANOVA, MANOVA, etc.) used to investigate the hypothesis(es), and outcomes of the analysis. Explain
whether either study would have benefited from using a difference variance analysis tool.
