Question

In a two by three mixed ANOVA in which gender (male; female) serves as a between-participants variable and time of test (start of semester, mid-semester, end of semester) serves as a repeated measures variable, participant is crossed with ______ and nested within _______.

Options:
A) Gender; Time of Test
B) Time of Test; Gender
C) Gender; Participant
D) Participant; Gender

Answer 1

In the mixed ANOVA described, participants are crossed with time of test and nested within gender, reflecting the study design's categorization of subjects and measurement occasions. So the correct answer s Option A.

Step-by-step explanation:

In a two by three mixed ANOVA where gender serves as a between-participants variable and time of test as a repeated measures variable, participants are crossed with time of test and nested within gender. This means that each level of the between-participants variable (gender) includes all levels of the within-participants variable (time of test). Gender is the variable that groups the participants into separate categories (males and females), whereas time of test refers to measurements taken from the same participants across different times (start of semester, mid-semester, end of semester).
