Question

Need to confirm that the assumption of homogeneity was meet (p = .848) for a scenario previously answered. The scenario reads that ....Joe collected a questionnaire from 28 students in his school on their attitudes toward the local science fair. The hypothesis was there is no significant difference among the attitude toward science fairs of student winners.

Answer 1

Yes, assumption of homogeneity is met because the p value is 0.848 which is insignificant.

In this case, your null hypothesis would be that there is no sigificant difference among the attitude toward science fairs of student winners.

And alternate hypothesis would be that there is a significant difference among the attitude toward science fairs of student winners.

Since your calculated p value is 0.848, which is significantly large enough, i.e. it is greater than 0.01,0.10 or 0.05 level of significance. Therefore, we can say that we failed to reject the null hypothesis and thus, we can say that we have enough evidence to conclude that there is no significant difference among the attitude toward science fairs of student winners.
