Eighty college students were asked to rate two scientists, one male 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 85 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.
