a study was being conducted to determine whether the type of job a person has is related to whether they are satisfied with their life. to conduct the study, the researchers selected six jobs and asked random workers from these jobs to rate their level of satisfaction with their life from a scale of 1 - 10. which of the following is the appropriate reason whether or not the data satisfies the condition of an anova? an anova is not appropriate because there could be a potential overlap in the groups because someone could be working two of the jobs (teacher and cashier). an anova is appropriate because the data is randomly collected and independent. an anova is appropriate because the workers were randomly assigned to each of the groups. an anova is not appropriate because the workers were not randomly assigned.

Answer

# Brief Explanations: ANOVA requires independent and randomly - collected data. Here, random workers from different jobs are asked to rate life satisfaction. There is no need for random assignment of workers to jobs as we are observing existing job - life satisfaction relationships. The data being randomly collected and independent makes ANOVA appropriate. # Answer: An ANOVA is appropriate because the data is randomly collected and independent.
