Scenario #1: A researcher wishes to examine whether people high or low in self-esteem react differently to different kinds of therapy for depression. She takes a sample of 120 people (half have high self-esteem and half have low self-esteem) and randomly assigns them to one of three conditions (humanistic therapy, cognitive-behavioral therapy, and a control group of no therapy). She records their level of depression after 3 months of therapy. Scores can range from 1 (very little depression) to 30 (extreme depression). In the boxes below, write in a pattern of means that would reveal a main effect of type of therapy: Humanistic Therapy: M = Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy: M = Control Group: M = High Self-Esteem: M = Low Self-Esteem: M = In the boxes below, write in a pattern of means that would reveal a main effect of self-esteem: Humanistic Therapy: M = Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy: M = Control Group: M = High Self-Esteem: M = Low Self-Esteem: M = In the boxes below, write in a pattern of means that would reveal an interaction between type of therapy and self-esteem: Humanistic Therapy: M = Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy: M = Control Group: M = High Self-Esteem: M = Low Self-Esteem: M = Describe in words the pattern of results you created in the above question (you do not need to include any statistics).
