Question

A study comparing the resting heart rate of four different types of elite athletes recruited: 10 cyclists, 10 triathletes, 10 soccer players, and 10 baseball players. The resting heart rate of each athlete was measured, and the following hypothesis was tested using ANOVA: "Type of sport is a factor in elite athletes' resting heart rate." The BETWEEN groups sum of squares was calculated to be 1,892.6, and the WITHIN groups sum of squares was calculated to be 14,482.9. (NOTE: These are not the mean sum of squares)

Calculate the F-statistic to two decimal places.

Explanation / Answer

So F= 1.33

Between group 4-1=3 1763 1763/3=587.6667 587.6667/440.5278 =1.334006 Within Groups 39-3=36 15859 15859/36 =440.5278 Totoal 40-1=39
