Question 1

A second MANOVA assumption is that the observations on at least one DV must follow a multivariate normal distribution in the group.

Accepted Answer

A) True 
 B)False

Question 2

A third advantage of using MANOVA is that the overall Type I error rate is increased.

Accepted Answer

A) True 
 B)False

Question 3

The null hypothesis being tested in MANCOVA is that the adjusted population mean vectors are not equal.

Accepted Answer

A) True 
 B)False

Question 4

MANCOVA asks if there are statistically significant mean differences among groups after adjusting the newly created DV for differences on one or more covariates.

Accepted Answer

A) True 
 B)False

Question 5

An assumption in MANCOVA is that linear relationships need not exist between all pairs of DVs, all pairs of covariates, and all DV-covariates in each cell.

Accepted Answer

A) True 
 B)False

Question 6

If the null hypothesis is retained, it is common practice to stop the interpretation of the analysis at this point and conclude that the treatments or conditions have no effect on the DVs.

Accepted Answer

A) True 
 B)False

Question 7

A third MANOVA assumption is that the relationships among all pairs of DVs for each cell in the data matrix must be normal.

Accepted Answer

A) True 
 B)False

Question 8

MANOVA incorporates the interconnections of DVs into the analysis.

Accepted Answer

A) True 
 B)False

Question 9

The most commonly used test statistic for MANOVA is Roy's Largest Root.

Accepted Answer

A) True 
 B)False

Question 10

In MANCOVA, the effects of the covariates are added to the analysis, leaving the researcher with a clearer picture of the true effects of the IVs on the multiple DVs.

Accepted Answer

A) True 
 B)False
