Questions refer to Table 11-2. In this study, 10 children completed a survey regarding their impressions of smokers at age 8 and then again at age 10 and 12. Scores could range from 1 (extreme negative impression of smokers) to 20 (extreme positive impression of smokers).

Table 11-2

\begin{array} { c c c c c } \text { GROUP } & \mathrm { N } & \text { MEAN } & \text { STD DEV } & \text { STD ERROR } \\ 1 \text { (AGE 8) } & 10 & 9.70 & 5.89 & 1.86 \\ 2 \text { (AGE 10) } & 10 & 10.40 & 5.58 & 1.76 \\ 3 \text { (AGE 12) } & 10 & 11.80 & 5.94 & 1.88 \end{array}

ONEWAY ANOVA: SMOKING by AGE (CORR SAMP)

\begin{array} { l c c c r r } & \text { SUM OF } & \text { MEAN } & & \\ \text { SOURCE } & \text { SQUARES } & \text { DF } & \text { SQUARES } & \text { F RATIO } & \text { PROB. } \\ \text { AGE } & 22.87 & 2 & 11.43 & 6.76 & .006 \\\text { SUBJECTS } & 879.63 & 9 & 97.74 & 34.71 & .000 \\\text { WITHIN CELLS } & 30.47 & 18 & 1.69 & & \\\text { TOTAL } & 932.97 & 29 & & & \end{array}

POST HOC TEST: Tukey-HSD with significance level .05
* Indicates significant differences shown for pairings

\begin{array} { l l l } \mathrm { G } & \mathrm { G } & \mathrm { G } \\ \mathrm { r } & \mathrm { r } & \mathrm { r } \\ \mathrm { p } & \mathrm { p } & \mathrm { p } \\ 1 & 2 & 3 \end{array}

\begin{array}{ll}\text { Mean } & \mathrm{AGE}\\9.70 & \text { Grp } 1 \\10.40 & \text { Grp 2 } \\11.80 & \text { Grp } 3\end{array}

-Consult Table 11-1. Which means are significantly different from each other?
A) The high dose group is significantly different from the low dose group, and no other comparisons are significant.
B) The high dose group is significantly different from the no dose group and the low dose group, and the low dose group and the no dose group do not significantly differ from each other.
C) The high dose group and the low dose group are significantly different from the no dose group, and the high dose and low dose group do not significantly differ from each other.
D) All three groups are significantly different from each other.
