Instructions:Recall the "Fake News" study from yourt-Test crash course. Let's add another condition to that study so that we can use a One Way ANOVA.

The prevalence of "Fake News" over the last several years has crept its way into a lot of people's lives, especially on social media. But how do people respond when they are called out for posting fake news? Imagine we run a study where a Facebook user posts a fake news story on his timeline. When other people point out that the news is "fake", the user responds in one ofthreeways. In the "Rude Disagree" condition, the user gets angry, calling those who said his post was fake "morons, losers, and uninformed idiots", and rudely disagrees that he shared fake news (nice guy, huh!). In the "Polite Disagree" condition, the user still disagrees that he posted fake news, but he does so by politely disagreeing that he shared fake news (noting "I know you might have good intentions, but the news I posted is actually correct"). Finally, in the "Politely Agree" condition, the user politely agrees that he did share fake news. Participants read one of these three conditions and are asked to rate the statement, "The Facebook user seems like a rude person" on a scale ranging from 1 (Strongly disagree) to 6 (Strongly agree).

1). What is the independent variable in this study?

A. Whether the Facebook user intentionally meant to share fake news, unintentionally

shared fake news, or posted accurate news.

B. Ratings of "The Facebook user seems like a rude person".

C. Ratings of "The Facebook user posted fake news".

D. Whether the Facebook user rudely disagreed, politely disagreed, or politely agreed that

he shared fake news.

E. There is too little information in this study to determine the independent variable.

2). What is the dependent variable in this study?

A. Whether the Facebook user intentionally meant to share fake news, unintentionally

shared fake news, or posted accurate news.

B. Ratings of "The Facebook user seems like a rude person".

C. Ratings of "The Facebook user posted fake news".

D. Whether the Facebook user rudely disagreed, politely disagreed, or politely agreed that

he shared fake news.

E. There is too little information in this study to determine the independent variable.

You run a One Way AVOVA on this data set and get the following SPSS output. Using this output,

interpret the information.
