ID = Subject #
EARLY = Six EARLY social behavior observations
(scale
of 1-9; 1 = no social behaviors; 9 = highest level of social behaviors)
LATE = Six LATE social behavior observations
(same scale as above)
AGE = Age of sea monkey (1 = Juvenile sea
monkeys, 2 = Adult sea monkeys)
STRAIN = (1= Black sea monkeys, 2 = Brown sea
monkeys)
CROWDED = Observation chamber crowdedness
condition (1 - 4; 1 = alone; 2 = with one other sea monkey; 3 = with
two other sea monkeys;
4 = with three other sea monkeys)
TEMP = Observation chamber temperature in oC (to
1
decimal place)
Which statistical test would be used to analyze each of the following hypotheses?
1. As temperature increases, so do overall average levels of sea monkey sociability.
2. Brown sea monkeys will have higher overall average levels of social behaviors when compared to black sea monkeys.
3. Late average levels (last six trials) of social behavior will be lower than earlier average levels (first six trials).
4. Overall average level of social behaviors varies as a function of both strain and age.
5. Adult sea monkeys are more likely to be black, while Juvenile sea monkeys are more likely to be brown.
