n=10                n=10                n=10

SS=63             SS=66             SS=87

 

a.         Compute the variance for each sample.

b.         Compute MSwithin which would be the denominator of the F-ratio for an ANOVA.

Because the samples are all the same size, you should find that MSwithin is equal to the average of the three sample variances.

 

4.         The following summary table presents the results from an ANOVA comparing four treatment conditions with n=12 participants in each condition. Complete all missing values. (Hint: Start with the df column.)

5.         One possible explanation for why some birds migrate and others maintain year round residency in a single location is intelligence. Specifically, birds with small brains, relative to their body size, are simply not smart enough to find food during the winter and must migrate to warmer climates where food is easily available (Sol, Lefebvre, & Rodriguez- Teijeiro, 2005). Birds with bigger brains, on the other hand, are more creative and can find food even when the weather turns harsh. Following are hypothetical data similar to the actual results. The numbers represent relative brain size for the individual birds in each sample.

 

Non-Migrating            Short-Distance Migrants          Long Distance Migrants

T=90                           T=54                                       T=36

SS=48                         SS=34                                     SS=16

 

a.         Use an ANOVA with α=.05 to determine whether there are any significant mean differences among the three groups of birds.

b.         Compute η2, the percentage of variance explained by the group differences, for these data.

c.         Write a sentence demonstrating how a research report would present the results of the hypothesis test and the measure of effect size.

d.         Use the Tukey HSD posttest to determine which groups are significantly different.

 

6.         A published report of a repeated-measures research study includes the following description of the statistical analysis. “The results show significant differences among the treatment conditions, F(2,20) = 5.00, p< .05.”

a.         How many treatment conditions were compared in the study?

b.         How many individuals participated in the study?

 

7.         A recent study examined how applicants with a facial blemish such as a scar or birthmark fared in job interviews (Madera & Hebl, 2011). The results indicate that interviewers recalled less information and gave lower ratings to applicants with a blemish. In a similar study, participants conducted computer-simulated interviews with a series of applicants including one with a facial scar and one with a facial birthmark. The following data represent the ratings given to each applicant.

Based on your reading and analysis of the case study, Post by Day 3 your response to the following:

 

  • What were the risks faced by Engro after the fire had left its head office in ruins?
  • Explain the purpose of the Business Continuity (Disaster Recovery) Plan. What features were omitted from the plan?
  • The systems were not integrated and this made it simpler for Engro to recover from the disaster: Does this negate the concept of Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP)? Why, in your opinion, did Engro deviate from the Business Continuity (Disaster Recovery) Plan?
  • Evaluate the overall plan and implementation.
  • What best practices or lessons can you learn from Engro, and how might you apply those at your organization? Provide specific examples to support your observations.

Discuss the challenge of making sales con- tests

1.        Procter & Gamble has become so concerned about the proliferation of private-label products that it has taken the extraordinary step of suing one of its own channel members that sells private labels as well as large volumes of P&G products. The firm in question, F&M Distributors Inc., operates over 100 drug stores. P&G claims that F&M’s private-label merchandise is designed and packaged to look almost identical to famous brand P&G products, such as Pantene Pro-V, Head & Shoulders, Secret, Sure and Noxema. P&G not only wants F&M to discontinue the sale of such copycat, private-label products, but seeks damages as well. P&G had initiated similar suits before against private-label imitators, but the targets of those lawsuits had been manufacturers of private-label merchandise rather than distributors of P&G products. Industry observers think P&G is taking quite a risk in suing its own channel members because they are unlikely to be enthusiastic sellers of P&G products after being sued by P&G.

What seems to be going on here in terms of private versus national brand competition and the role of independent distributors? Do you believe P&G is acting wisely in suing one of its own channel members? Explain why or why not.

2.       A sales representative from a wholesaler of sporting goods called on a sporting goods retailer in the middle of the summer. The salesman was particularly fond of the new line of exercise equipment from a major manufacturer his company was now carrying. He went through his presentation of showing pictures, leaflets and catalogs for about 20 minutes. Finally, the store owner held up his hand as if to say “wait a minute” and said, “What’s the bottom line? How much can I make on this stuff? Normally we get 50 percent off list price on these products and I see from your catalog that most of your merchandise offers that. But the market around here is very competitive. Stores discount this stuff like crazy. I need 35 percent gross margin to pay my expenses and make a profit. How can I be sure this merchandise will measure up?” 
What would be your response to the store owner? Present an argument that would address his concerns on gross margins

3.       Retail carpet dealers are in an industry that is deluged with manufacturers’ push promotions on an almost daily basis, making it difficult for any particular carpet manufacturer to attract retailers’ attention with promotional programs. So when Mohawk Industries, one of the largest U.S. carpet manufacturers, launched a sales incentive pro- gram to push its DuPont Stainmaster carpets, it focused directly on the retailers’ salespeople. 
To initially attract their attention, Mohawk de- veloped a customized rock CD labeled Mohawk Rocks and a poster that explained the details
of the program. The actual awards for meeting specified levels of sales of the Stainmaster carpets were in the form of merchandise and free travel—typical perks for such programs. But the response to this incentive campaign was unusu- ally high. Mohawk believes that the CD and poster provided a special touch that helped to make this essentially standard manufacturer sales incentive promotional campaign stand out from the crowd. Many salespeople, after glancing at 
 the poster, could not resist giving a listen to the CD, and once they did, Mohawk’s promotion made it onto their “radar screens.”

4.       Discuss the challenge of making sales con- tests and incentives aimed at channel members interesting and attractive enough to achieve a high level of participation. Farouk Systems Inc. is a manufacturer of high quality, hand-held hair care products such as hair dryers, hair irons and professional quality shampoos and hair colorings. The company has annual sales volume in excess of $1 billion and sells its products in over 100 countries. But what is unusual about this company is that in spite of its vast and diversified customer base spanning much of the globe, all of Farouk Systems manufacturing is done in the U.S. at a large fac- tory in Houston, Texas. The company had done some manufacturing in China but decided to discontinue this overseas manufacturing to con- solidate all manufacturing in Houston. Farouk Systems believes that not only will product quality be enhanced by not outsourcing produc- tion, but inventory costs will be substantially less than if products were produced in multiple overseas locations.Do you agree with Farouk Systems’s strat- egy? Can you make a case for confining produc- tion to just one home plant even though products must be supplied to customers in over one hun- dred countries around the world

Process Improvement Plan: Risk Assessment

At this point you have identified the organization and the deficient process, created a proposal for a new process, and determined the needed resources and your budget. You will now conduct a risk assessment based on this information. What can go wrong when integrating the process? You might consider conflicts between stakeholders. Not everyone will agree with new process. Does your organization have a change management policy or process? If not, what is the risk of proceeding with integrating the new process? Consider this and more as you perform your risk assessment.

After identifying the risks, you should provide some details on how you plan to manage that risk. For instance, if the risk is a lack of a change management system, then you could provide a strategy to effectively implement the new process without a formal system.

This paper should:

  • Be 3 pages in length.
  • Be supported by research.
  • Identify the risks associated with the new process.
  • Include a plan to overcome these risks.
  • Include an explanation as to how you plan to use your chosen management theories in order to manage the identified risks of implementing the new process.

Consider the results that different theories have and whether or not your chosen theory has the most effective approach.

Consider reviewing the Health and Safety Executive website as it provides various examples of risk assessments.
