The Question

A dietician wanted to test three different diets to find out if the mean weight loss for each of these diets is the same.  She randomly selected 21 overweight persons, randomly divided them into three groups, Diet I, Diet II, and Diet III. After running an Anova, Single Factor hypothesis test on the data, she determined at least 2 means are different.

Treatment	Treatment	Difference	Alpha = 0.05	Alpha = 0.05
Diet I	Diet II	-6.14286	4.73283	5.7505
	Diet III	-1	4.73283	5.7505
Diet II	Diet III	5.14286	4.73283	5.7505

 

a.	Difference is between ?Diet I? and ?Diet III
b.	According to Tukey?s Omega, there are no differences shown in the printout.
c.	Difference is between ?Diet I? and ?Diet II
