PBH592 Quiz: Descriptive Statistics and ANOVA
Scenario 1:
A researcher wants to determine if different forms of regular exercise alter HDL levels in obese middle aged males between the ages of 35 and 45. Participants in the study are randomly assigned to one of four exercise groups -No Exercise, Resistance Training, Aerobic Exercise or Stretching/Yoga - and instructed to follow the program for 8 weeks. Their HDL levels are measured after 8 weeks and are summarized below.
