b.Sketch the distributions involved.
c.Figure the effect size of this study and indicate whether it is nearer to small,medium,or large.
d.Conduct a planned contrast for the Social Life versus Scholarship films (using the .05 level).
e.Conduct Scheffé's test for the groups in (d)and indicate the F cutoff,the F you would use for the comparison,and the hypothesis-testing decision (reject or do not reject).
f.Explain the logic of what you did to a person who is familiar with the t test for independent means,but who knows nothing about the analysis of variance.(Be sure your explanation includes the logic of comparing within-groups to between-groups population variance estimates,the logic of how each of these is figured,the F distribution,and the F table.)
