# Rubric

1. Using a numerical response variable and a categorical variable with three to five levels (or a categorical variable you can reduce to three to five levels), specify an ANOVA hypothesis associated with your research questions.
• (2 p) Specify the ANOVA hypotheses in words and notation,
• (2 p) plot the data in a way that is consistent with hypothesis test (comparing means, assess equal variance assumption),
• (1 p) use aov() to calculate the hypothesis test statistic and p-value,
• (1 p) state the significance level, test statistic, and p-value,
• (2 p) state the conclusion in the context of the problem,
• (2 p) If you rejected the ANOVA null hypothesis, perform follow-up pairwise comparisons using Tukey’s HSD to indicate which groups have statistically different means and summarize the results.
