If the independent variables interact in a two-factor between-subjects analysis of variance, then will increase in value relative to MSError.
A)MSA
B)MSB
C)MSA × B
D)all the above

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

When there is interaction between independent variables in a two-factor between-subjects ANOVA, the increase in value relative to MSError is reflected in the interaction term, which is the product of MS for factor A and factor B (MSA × B). Therefore, the correct answer is Choice C. Neither MS for factor A (MSA) nor MS for factor B (MSB) on their own reflect the increase in value relative to MSError caused by the interaction.
