Textbook Question
Chapter 14.1, Problem 3PB
What’s the best way to learn French? The following table shows scores on the first quiz (maximum score 10 points) for eighth-grade students in an introductory level French course. The instructor grouped the students in the course as follows:
Group 1: Never studied foreign language before but have good English skills
Group 2: Never studied foreign language before and have poor English skills
Group 3: Studied at least one other foreign language
French scores on the quiz
- a. Defining notation and using results obtained with software, also shown in the table, report the five steps of the ANOVA test.
- b. The sample means are quite different, but the P-value is not small. Name one important reason for this. (Hint: For given sample means, how do the results of the test depend on the
sample sizes ?) - c. Was this an experimental study, or an observational study? Explain how a lurking variable could be responsible for Group 3 having a larger mean than the others. (Thus, even if the P-value were small, it is inappropriate to assume that having studied at least one foreign language causes one to perform better on this quiz.)
