JOHN – ROXAS
Member: Association of LASSSAI-Affiliated Superschools (ALAS)
Gov. Atila Balgos Ave., Banica Roxas City

Name: Izza Marie Alfabeti Group/Year: BSP 1

Testing of Assumption
Problem: Three sections of the same Mathematics course are taught by three instructors. The final exam
score of the students in the three sections are recorded as follows:

Section 1: 95,32,47,75,83,84,73,68

Section 2: 85, 90, 79, 50, 32, 84, 78, 95, 65, 80

Section 3: 79, 92, 63, 68, 76, 20, 37, 74, 86

Homogeneity of Variances
Stepwise Method

Step 1: State the null and Alternative Hypotheses

Test of Hypothesis:

1. Ho: The variances in final exam scores of 3 sections are equal.


Ha: The variances final exam scores of 3 sections are not equal.

2. TEST PROCEDURE: Homogeneity of variance test (Levene’s test)

3.  = 5% 4. Decision Rule: Reject Ho if sig < ; Otherwise, fail to reject Ho.

5. Computations:

sig = 0.907  = 0.05

6. DECISION: Since sig= 0.907 <  =0.05; we fail to reject Ho.

7.CONCLUSION: At  = 5%, The variances of three treatments are equal.

Run’s Test for Randomness


Stepwise Method

Step 1: State the null and Alternative Hypotheses

Test for Randomness

1. Ho: The sequence of observations is random.


Ha: The sequence of observations is not random.

2. TEST PROCEDURE: Runs test for randomness 3.  = 5%

4. Decision Rule: Reject Ho if sig < ; Otherwise, fail to reject Ho.

5. Computations:

6. DECISION: Since sig= 0.969 <  =0.05; we fail to reject Ho.

7. CONCLUSION: At  = 5%, the sequence of observations is random.

Test of Normality
Stepwise Method

Step 1: State the null and Alternative Hypotheses

Test of Hypothesis:

1. Ho: The distribution of data is normal.


Ha: The distribution of data is not normal.

2. TEST PROCEDURE: Wilk-Shapiro Test for Normality

3.  = 5%

4. Decision Rule: Reject Ho if sig < ; Otherwise, fail to reject Ho.

5. Computations:

sig = 0.172 (for section 3)

 = 0.05

6. DECISION: Since sig= <  =0.05; we fail to reject Ho.

7. CONCLUSION: At  = 5%, the distribution of data is normal among three sections.
