If the null hypothesis for a one-way ANOVA is rejected, it means that the effect of the independent variable on the dependent variable is significant. Therefore, choice A is correct. Choice B is incorrect because if the null hypothesis is rejected, it means that the mean values of the dependent variable are different for different categories of the independent variable. Choice C is also incorrect because, as already mentioned, the rejection of the null hypothesis indicates the significant effect of the independent variable on the dependent variable. Choice D is incorrect because only choice A is correct.
