She then administers the Relationship Dissatisfaction Measure (RDM) to both the husbands and wives; a high RDM score indicates high relationship dissatisfaction. Her SPSS data file contains 24 cases, one for each husband-wife pair, and four variables, 2 RDM scores for the husbands and 2 RDM scores for the wives.

what is the average of RDM scores for the husband and then do the same for the wife.

a. What is the average RDM score for the husband?

b. What is the average RDM score for the wife?

Conduct a paired samples t-test on these data (using your averaged variables) and provide the value for each of the following. Paste the relevant output below:

2.Mary, a developmental psychologist, is interested in how children's self-esteem develops over-time. She measures 25 children at ages 5, 7, 9, 11, and 13 using the Self-Esteem Descriptor (SED). The data file contains 25 cases and five variables, the self-esteem scores for each child at each period (sed1 through sed5)

Conduct a repeated measures ANOVA to see if self-esteem changes significantly over time. Paste the relevant output below.

Was sphericity violated?

Which F test should/will you use to analyze your results? (there are 3 options). Why?

Did self-esteem vary across time for participants? (basically, was your F test significant?; it would benefit you to write up all your stats here for the F test, but it's not required)

What follow-up tests should you conduct/use? Why? Paste the relevant output below.
