Q1) Psychologist would like to study effects of new drug on activity level of animals. 3 samples of rats are chosen with n = 5 in each sample. One group gets no drug, one group gets small dose, and third group gets a large dose. Psychologist records activity level for each animal. Data from this experiment are presented below.

a) Do these data point to any significant differences among three groups? Test with α = .05.-----------------and conclude that drug------------- a significant effect on activity level.
b) Calculate η2, the percentage of variance accounted for by treatment.
