Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

df_{between treatments} = (n-1) = (8-1) = 7. Since factor A has 2 levels and factor B has 3 levels, there are 2*3=6 total treatment conditions. Therefore, there are 6-1=5 degrees of freedom remaining after accounting for the contrast between treatments_and. So, the value for df_{between treatments} is 5.
