Note: You can chose to run either a one-way ANOVA (a single IV with more than 3 levels) or a two-way/factorial ANOVA (at least two IVs) for the homework. You will need to specify your hypothesis and customize your code based on the choice you make. I will run both versions of the test here for illustrative purposes.
One-Way: We predict that there will be a significant effect of mental health on anxiety, as measured by the pandemic anxiety scale (pas_covid).

Our cell sizes are very unbalanced. A small sample size for one of the levels of our variable limits our power and increases our Type II error rate.
Levene’s test is significant for our three-level gender variable. We are ignoring this and continuing with the analysis anyway, but in the real world this is something we would have to correct for.
We identified and removed a single outlier.

To test our hypothesis that there would be a significant effect of mental health on anxiety, as measured by the pandemic anxiety scale, we used a one-way ANOVA. Our data was unbalanced, with many more women participating in our survey (n = 968) than men (n = 188) those who prefer to use another term (n = 29) and those who prefer not to say (n = 21). This significantly reduces the power of our test and increases the chances of a Type II error. We also identified and removed multiple outliers following visual analysis of a Residuals vs Leverage plot. A significant Levene’s test (p = .05) also indicates that our data violates the assumption of homogeneity of variance. This suggests that there is an increased chance of Type I error. We continued with our analysis for the purpose of this class.
We found a significant effect of gender, F(12.08) = .029, p < .001, ηp2 = .042 (large effect size; Cohen, 1988). Posthoc tests using Sidak’s HSD revealed that women reported more anxiety than men but less anxiety than those who prefer not to say participants, while those who use another term reported the highest amount of stress overall (see Figure 1 for a comparison).
