The following table summarizes the results of a twofactor AN
The following table summarizes the results of a two-factor ANOVA evaluating an independent-measures experiment with two levels of factor A, three levels of factor B, and n = 8 participants in each treatment condition. Again, use the lecture notes as your guide for this.
a. Fill in ALL missing values in the table that have a question mark.
b. Calculate F for each main effect and for the interaction. State if there is a significant main effect for either factor A or factor B, and if there is a significant interaction. Use an alpha of .01.
c. Compute ?2 (the percentage of variance accounted for) for each of the main effects and for the interaction. .

State the F value for each effect (Factor A, B and AxB), state the critical value of F for each test, and state whether F is significant, and whether you can or cant reject the null hypothesis.
