In the paper "Self-Control and Therapist Control in the Behavioral Treatment of OverweightWomen" published in Behavioral Research and Therapy (Vol. 10, 1972), two reduction treatments and a control treatment were studied for their effects on the weight change of obese women. The two reduction treatments involved were, respectively, a self-induced weight reduction program and a therapist-controlled reduction program. Each of 10 subjects were assigned to the 3 treatment programs in a random order and measured for weight loss. The following weight changes were recorded. Perform an analysis of variance and test the hypothesis, at the 0.01 level of significance, that there is no difference in the mean weight losses for the 3 treatments. Which treatment wasbest?
