Problem Set 1: The One-way ANOVA Research Scenario: As part of a new prevention program a clinical psychologist wants to see whether feelings of alienation differ as a function of immigration status in a local high school. She divides volunteer students into three categories: first-generation immigrants second-generation immigrants and non-immigrants. She then administers an instrument assessing feelings of alienation where higher scores indicate stronger feelings of alienation from peers adults and society in general. Is there a difference in alienation scores among these three groups? Using this table enter the data into a new SPSS data file and run a one-way ANOVA to testwhether there is a difference in feelings of alienation among the three groups. Create a boxplot to show the difference between the groups. Follow the directions below the table to complete the homework.

Following six months of therapy the participants are assessed using the Inventory of Callous Unemotional Traits (ICU; Frick 2004). On this instrument higher scores indicate higher levels of conduct problems and callous-unemotional traits. The scores for each group are shown in the table below. Using this table enter the data into a new SPSS data file and run a one-way ANOVA to testwhether there is a difference in ICU scores among the three groups. Create a boxplot to show the difference between the groups. Follow the directions below the table to complete the homework.
