ANOVA Test: Comparing Participants’ Recall 1 across Stress Level Conditions
Hypothesis Testing
In this work, we need to tests whether or not recall 1 will vary as a function of stress.
We thus conduct ANOVA test to compare participants’ recall 1 across all three stress-level
conditions (low, medium, and high). The null and alternative hypothesis can therefore be
stated as follows;
Hypotheses
Null Hypothesis (H1): Recall 1 will not vary as a function of stress levels.
Alternative Hypothesis (Ha): Recall 1 will vary as a function of stress levels
The ANOVA test was done using the Statistical Packages for Social Sciences (SPSS Version
25.0). The results from the analysis are presented in the output tables as shown below.

Discussion
Based on the findings from the ANOVA test, we can see that out calculate F = 2.516 which is
greater than 0.05. With this, we thus need to reject the null hypothesis and conclude that
recall 1 will vary as a function of stress levels.
