When children see adults arguing, what do they think or expect will happen? Two researchers had elementary school children watch a videotape of a man and a woman arguing (El-Sheikh \& Elmore-Staton, 2007). In some of the videotapes, the adults were intoxicated, but in some, the adults were sober. After watching the videotape, each child was asked how likely either the man or the woman would be verbally or physically aggressive (the higher the score, the greater the likelihood of aggression). These researchers hypothesized that children expect higher levels of aggression when they thought the adults were intoxicated versus if they were sober, particularly if the intoxicated adult was a man as opposed to a woman.

a. Calculate descriptive statistics \(\left(N_{\mathrm{AB}}, \bar{X}_{\mathrm{AB}}, s_{\mathrm{AB}}\right)\) for each combination of the two factors.

b. Create a figure to represent the cell means.

c. Conduct the two-way ANOVA and create an ANOVA summary table.

d. Report the decisions regarding the null hypotheses and the level of significance for the main effects and the interaction effect.

e. Calculate measures of effect size \(\left(R^{2}\right)\) for the main effects and the interaction effect.
