Political Affiliations and Post
Hoc Analysis
Using the data attached, help with
the following.
Determine whether an individual’s
satisfaction with the economy differs across the various political
affiliations, using the levels of Republican, Democrat, and others (e.g.,
Independents and Undeclared).
Use the proper df and show all the
steps of calculations.
Explain how the critical value is
determined. Interpret the results on the basis of the comparison of the test
statistic to the critical value. Interpret the significance of the results and
explain whether an individual’s satisfaction with the economy depends on his or
her political affiliation.
Conduct a post hoc analysis to
determine which comparisons contributed to the results. Be sure to explain
which post hoc test you chose and why and show all the steps of your
calculations.
Interpret the use of an ANOVA with
a post hoc test compared to the use of multiple t-tests. Explain which would
have been more appropriate in this situation and why.
Compile your calculations and
analysis in a 2- to 3-page Microsoft Word document.
