An experiment was conducted to compare the effectiveness of four training programs, namely, A, B, C, and D in training assemblers of a piece of electronic equipment. Twenty employees were randomly selected and assigned to each program, that is, five employees per program. After completion of the training courses, each person was required to assemble four pieces of equipment, and the length of time (in secs) to complete the assembly was recorded. The summary of the data gathered is recorded in the table. At α=0.10, test for the hypothesis that the assembly times for people trai

Question

An experiment was conducted to compare the effectiveness of four training programs, namely, A, B, C, and D in training assemblers of a piece of electronic equipment. Twenty employees were randomly selected and assigned to each program, that is, five employees per program. After completion of the training courses, each person was required to assemble four pieces of equipment, and the length of time (in secs) to complete the assembly was recorded. The summary of the data gathered is recorded in the table. At α=0.10, test for the hypothesis that the assembly times for people trained are the same for the four programs.
