Instructions
In the Data Collection Discussion in Unit 1, collect the data that students provided for Variable 1, Variable 2, and Variable 3. Build an Excel file with two columns. Column 1 will be labeled “Group #” and will use the numbers 1, 2, and 3. Column 2 will be labeled “Score” and will use the values provided for Variable 1, Variable 2, and Variable 3.
For example, if in the Data Collection Discussion the student wrote Variable 1 = 289, Variable 2 = 297, and Variable 3 = 346, your Excel columns would look like this:
Continue adding all the values provided by the other students for Variables 1, 2, and 3. Be sure to group the variables together, so that all values for Group 1 are together and all values for Group 2 are together, etc. Here is an example of what your completed Excel spreadsheet would look like, but with different data and fewer values than you will have:
As an administrator to a health education program, you suspect that pairing first-year students with third-year students will help improve their end-of-year evaluations. To test your hypothesis, you develop a mentoring program that has three groups. Group 1 will be the control. Group 2 will meet in person weekly. Group 3 will keep in touch using social media and texting.
Analyze the scores in the data you collected with ANOVA using PSPP.
Evaluate your findings and make recommendations. Write a report that summarizes your conclusions. In the summary, include the ANOVA test results as part of your narrative (not just in a table), your recommendation, and its justification.
