Statistics

Iconic memory is a type of memory that holds visual informationfor about half a second (0.5 seconds). To demonstrate this type ofmemory, participants were shown three rows of four letters for 50milliseconds. They were then asked to recall as many letters aspossible, with a 0-, 0.5-, or 1.0-second delay before responding.Researchers hypothesized that longer delays would result in poorerrecall. The number of letters correctly recalled is given in thetable.

(a) Complete the F-table. (Round your values forMS and F to two decimal places.)

(b) Compute Tukey's HSD post hoc test and interpret the results.(Assume alpha equal to 0.05. Round your answer to two decimalplaces.)

The critical value is _____ for each pairwise comparison.


Which of the comparisons had significant differences? (Select allthat apply.)

a) The null hypothesis of no difference should be retainedbecause none of the pairwise comparisons demonstrate a significantdifference.

b) Recall following a half second delay was significantlydifferent from recall following a one second delay.

c) Recall following no delay was significantly different fromrecall following a half second delay.

d) Recall following no delay was significantly different fromrecall following a one second delay.

Applying one way ANOVA: (use excel: data: data analysis: one way ANOVA: select Array):
Source SS df MS F
Between 48.00 2 24.00 4.50
Within 80.00 15 5.33
Total 128.00 17
pooled standard deviation        =Sp =√MSE      =                                                                      2.309
critical q with 0.05 level and at k=3 and N-k=15 degree of freedom= 3.67
Tukey's (HSD) for group i and j =                  (q/√2)*(sp*√(1/ni+1/nj)         = 3.46

d) Recall following no delay was significantly different from recall following a one second delay.
