Assignment Instructions: 1. Describe the research question and research design. 2. State the null and alternative hypotheses. Use statistical notation to specify the main effects (refer to Warner-2013, p. 778 or Warner-2021. p 353)

Assignment Instructions: 1. Describe the research question and research design. 2. State the null and alternative hypotheses. Use statistical notation to specify the main effects (refer to Warner-2013, p. 778 or Warner-2021. p 353). 3. Exploratory Data Analysis (EDA): a. Check normality of DVs using Shapiro-Wilk test or z-tests for skewness. b. Test for homogeneity of variances using Levene’s F-test. c. Test for homogeneity of covariance using Box’s M-test. Summarize and interpret the results of these tests. Continue with the analysis regardless of assumption violations. 4. Conduct a MANOVA, followed by univariate ANOVAs and Bonferroni post hoc tests. o DVs: BDI_II, BAI, BHS, PSS, ACT o IV (Fixed Factor): Group 5. Include a correctly formatted APA-style table and figure. Refer to the table within your summary. 6. Plot the means and refer to the figure within your summary. 7. Create an APA-formatted table of the MANOVA results. Refer to this table in your summary. 8. Summarize the MANOVA results in APA style. Report and interpret ANOVA results and effect sizes. Discuss Bonferroni post hoc comparisons. 9. Explain the study conclusions. Discuss what the findings reveal about treatment effectiveness. 10. Attach the SPSS output as an appendix. 11. Optional Extra Credit (+10 points): Conduct and interpret Roy-Bargmann’s Stepdown Analysis. Use eta-squared values to prioritize the DVs and covariates. 12. As in all weeks, , you must model your analysis summary after my sample summary- section by section, paragraph by paragraph, sentence by sentence—including the tables and figures.
