Analyse the cycling time-trial data below. Thirty-two elite cyclists were randomly allocated into one of four groups. Without using SPSS, calculate the mean and total for each group. The groups were as follows Group 1-
Group 2
Group 3
Group 4
How would you calculate the total sum of squares?
A) SST = SSW + SSB
B) SST = SSW - SSB
C) SST = SSB / SSW
D) SST = SSB × SSW

The total sum of squares (SST) can be calculated by adding the sum of squares within groups (SSW) and the sum of squares between groups (SSB), therefore SST = SSW + SSB.
