Example: Reed Manufacturing p -Value and Critical Value Approaches
1. Develop the hypotheses.
Factor . . . Manufacturing plant H0: 1= 2= 3
Treatments . . . Buffalo, Pittsburgh, Detroit Ha: Not all the means are equal
Experimental units . . . Managers where:
Response variable . . . Number of hours worked 1 = mean number of hours worked per
week by the managers at Plant 1
2 = mean number of hours worked per
week by the managers at Plant 2
3 = mean number of hours worked per
week by the managers at Plant 3
