Explain thses results to a firm of lawyers

1. Restate the research hypothesis research hypothesis null hypothesis about populations.Ha There are differences in people’s ability to cope with having to stay home for Covid amongst the different types of adult attachment styles.,

2. determine comparison distribution characteristics

• F distribution

• df between =

• dfwithin

• f =

1. Cutoff score

• p value is p < .05

• (3, 50) @ <.05 f = .122

1. determine sample score’s comparison distribution

* estimate variance distribition of of means

Draw conclusions

scores? a </ b

Reject /fail rehject the null hypothesis

Results are/aew not likely to be due to chance alone

Results are significant/not

Answer 1

1. Ho: There is no differences in people’s ability to cope with having to stay home for Covid amongst the different types of adult attachment styles.,

.Ha There are differences in people’s ability to cope with having to stay home for Covid amongst the different types of adult attachment styles.,

2. determine comparison distribution characteristics

• F distribution = 4.50

• df between =3

• dfwithin = 60

• f =0.122

conclusions:Reject the null hypothesis

Results are not likely to be due to chance alone

Results are significant
