Determine if the following statements are true or false in ANOVA, and explain your reasoning for statements you identify as false.
(a) As the number of groups increases, the modified significance level for pairwise tests increases as well.
(b) As the total sample size increases, the degrees of freedom for the residuals increases as well.
(c) The constant variance condition can be somewhat relaxed when the sample sizes are relatively consistent across groups.
(d) The independence assumption can be relaxed when the total sample size is large.
ANSWER:Step 1 of 5

False.
The modified significance level decreases because the number of comparisons increases when the number of groups increases.
