A one-way between-subjects ANOVA is appropriate when different participants are observed one time in each of two or more groups for one factor. This type of ANOVA is used to compare the means of two or more groups that differ on a single categorical variable. It is not appropriate when the same participants are observed in each of two or more groups, or when the levels of one or more factors are manipulated, as these situations require different types of ANOVA.
