Chapter 12: Q3RE (page 566)
Car Crash Tests Data Set 19 鈥淐ar Crash Tests鈥 in Appendix B lists results from car crash tests. The data set includes crash test loads (pounds) on the left femur and right femur. When those loads are partitioned into the three car size categories of small, midsize, and large, the two-way analysis of results from XLSTAT are as shown below. (The row factor of femur has the two values of left femur and right femur, and the column factor of size has the three values of small, midsize, and large.) Use a 0.05 significance level to apply the methods of two-way analysis of variance. What do you conclude?

Short Answer
The following three conclusions can be drawn.
- The interaction between the factors 鈥榝emur鈥 and 鈥榗ar size鈥 does not have a significant effect on the crash test loads.
- The factor 鈥榝emur鈥 does not have a significant effect on the crash test loads.
- The factor 鈥榗ar size鈥 does not have a significant effect on the crash test loads.
