In ANOVA, the F-statistic is large when: a) Group means are close together b) The within-group variability is much larger than the between-group variability c) Group means are far apart relative to within-group variation d) The sample sizes are unequal

If an ANOVA test yields an F-statistic less than 1, what does this suggest about the variances? A) Variance between groups is greater than variance within groups; significant differences exist. B) Variance within groups is greater than variance between groups; no significant differences. C) There is an error in calculations; F-statistic cannot be less than 1. D) All group means are equal.

Which set of sample characteristics is most likely to produce a statistically significant value for the independent-samples t statistic? A) A small mean difference between groups and small sample variances within groups B) A large mean difference between groups and small sample variances within groups C) A large mean difference within groups and small sample variances between groups D) A small mean difference within groups and large sample variances between groups
