Imagine we alter the design a bit. First, in terms of the attitude condition, we retain only the "Helen dislikes Emily" and the "Helen likes Emily" conditions (dropping the "No opinion" category). Second, while all participants read the same bland summary of Emily, for half of the participants, we stop the study right after they write their summary about Emily but before they rate Emily's likeability. We tell these participants that we made a mistake about whether Helen liked Emily and we wanted to correct that statement. Thus, participants are assigned to either a "mistake" or "no mistake" condition. This results in four conditions: 1). Participants are told that Helen likes Emily with no mistake. 2) Participants are told that Helen dislikes Emily with no mistake. 3). Participants are told that Helen likes Emily, but this is a mistake and "Actually, Helen dislikes Emily". 4). Participants are told that Helen dislikes Emily, but this is a mistake and "Actually, Helen likes Emily". The dependent variables remain the same, though we add a new manipulation check question that asks participants about Helen's true feelings about Emily ("Does Helen really like Emily?" Yes versus No). Using this new design, answer the following questions. 5). What is/are the independent variable(s) in this study, and how many levels are there to each? (.5 points) A. IV#1: Attitude Condition, two levels (Helen likes Emily versus Helen dislikes Emily) - IV #2: Whether participants rated Emily as likeable, two levels (Yes versus No). B. IV#1: Attitude Condition, two levels (Helen likes Emily versus Helen has no opinion about Emily) - IV #2: Mistake condition, two levels (Mistake versus No Mistake). C. IV#1: Attitude Condition, four levels (Helen likes Emily versus Helen dislikes Emily versus Emily likes Helen versus Emily dislikes Helen) - IV #2: Mistake Condition, two levels (Mistake versus No mistake). D. IV#1: Attitude Condition, two levels (Helen likes Emily versus Helen dislikes Emily)- IV #2: Mistake condition, two levels (Mistake versus No mistake). 6). Consider all of the possible main effects and interactions for this study. Use the SPSS file named DataAnalysisFIU#2EmilyFall.sav to run a 2 X 2 ANOVA (I will let YOU figure out which dependent variable to use for this!). Choose the option below that best describes the outcome. (.5 points) A. There are two significant main effects and a significant interaction B. There is one significant main effect, one non-significant main effect, and a significant interaction C. There is one significant main effect, one non-significant main effect, and no significant interaction D. There are two significant main effects but there is no significant interaction
