1. Factorial ANOVAs

2.  Factorial Analysis of Variance (ANOVA)  Allows you to enter multiple predictors and parcel out the variance in the outcome due to each predictor and the combination of the predictors  Main effect for each predictor + interactions among the predictors

3.  Use it when:  You are examining differences between groups  The participants in the study were only tested once  You are comparing more than two groups  You are dealing with more than one factor

4.  Main Effect of Each Predictor Variable ◦ Is there a mean difference among the levels of Variable A? ◦ Is there a mean difference among the levels of Variable B? ◦ And so on…  Interaction Effect of Predictor Variables ◦ Is the effect of Variable B different for the groups of Variable A? ◦ And so on… ◦ (can have 3, 4, 5-way interactions)

5.  State the hypotheses ◦ Null:  There is no main effect of gender:  μ male = μ female  There is no main effect of video game:  μ violent = μ modviolent = μ nonviolent  There is no interaction between gender and video game:  μ male*violent = μ male*modviolent = μ male*nonviolent = μ female*violent = μ female*modviolent = μ female*nonviolent ◦ Research:  There is a main effect of gender:  X male ≠ X female  There is a main effect of video game:  X violent ≠ X modviolent ≠ X nonviolent  There is an interaction between gender and video game:  X male*violent ≠ X male*modviolent ≠ X male*nonviolent ≠ X female*violent ≠ X female*modviolent ≠ X female*nonviolent

9.  An ANOVA was conducted with gender (male, female) and video game (violent, moderately violent, nonviolent) as between-subjects factors. There was a significant main effect of gender, such that men had higher aggression scores (M = 6.13, SD = 2.11) than women (M = 2.47, SD =.51), F(1, 54) = 735.81, p <.001. There was a significant main effect of video game, F(2, 54) = 107.27, p <.001. There was also a significant interaction between gender and video game, F(2, 54) = 115.54, p <.001.
