Eighty cоllege students were аsked tо rаte twо scientists, one mаle and one female, on their knowledge about their topic areas. Each student was given two passages to read: one passage was about the numerous bio-domes in the world (“Biology”) and another passage was about enhancing the education of elementary school children (“Education”).Half of the students were told that the Biology passage was written by a female and the Education passage was written by a male. The other half of students were told the Biology passage was written by a male and the Education passage was written by a female. Then students rated the scientist’s knowledge on their topic areas on a scale ranging from 1 (“Does not display a professional level of knowledge”) to 100 (“Displays a thorough knowledge of the topic”).A two-factor ANOVA was conducted, and the mean ratings are listed below for each scientist gender and topic area condition. Assume that any effects (or mean differences) you measure are statistically significant. Scientist Gender Female Male Topic Area Biology 55 65 Education 65 75 a) State whether the results show main effects and/or an interaction. b) Significant or not, clearly describe each of these effects and the interaction in Plain English. I am expecting you to interpret the patterns not an omnibus interpretation.

Betty spent $300,000 tо buy а secоnd-flоor unit in а residentiаl condominium development called Geyser Valley Condominiums. The development consisted of 100 condominium units in a five-story building, recreational areas, and parking lots, all located on a 20-acre parcel. Upon the close of escrow, Betty received: (1) a fee simple absolute in the airspace enclosed by her unit walls; and (2) a 1/100th interest as a tenant in common in the 20-acre parcel and the condominium building itself. Two weeks later, a major earthquake demolished the condominium building. A city investigation revealed that the building had been constructed on a massive earthquake fault which was previously unknown. To avoid loss of life in a future earthquake, the city council adopted an ordinance that banned all construction on the 20-acre parcel and nearby properties as well. As a result of this ordinance, the 20-acre parcel can only be used for farming and is worth only $100,000. Another city ordinance authorized city employees “to erect warning signs on private property to warn the public about hazards on that property.” The city accordingly erected a tall sign on the site to warn members of the public about the dangerous earthquake fault. The upper two feet of the sign are within the airspace where Betty’s condominium unit used to be. There is no insurance policy that will compensate Betty for her losses. Betty sued the city, claiming that a taking had occurred. Which of the following is most likely?
