A researcher is conducting a study involving two independent variables. Which of the following Analysis of Variance (ANOVA) is/are available to him/her?
Show Hint
The number of factors in ANOVA equals the number of independent variables.
Step 1: Understanding independent variables in ANOVA.
The number of independent variables determines the type of ANOVA used. Two independent variables require a two-way (factorial) ANOVA. Step 2: Evaluation of options.
Options (A) and (B) both represent factorial ANOVAs with two independent variables, differing only in the number of levels. Step 3: Elimination of incorrect options.
Option (C) involves three independent variables, while option (D) involves only one independent variable. Step 4: Conclusion.
Hence, options (A) and (B) are correct.
