In an effort to determine the effectiveness of light therapy to alleviate depression, you recruit a group of individuals who have been diagnosed with depression. The participants are randomly assigned to one of three groups: Group 1 will be the control group—members of this group will receive no light therapy. Members of Group 2 will get light therapy for 1 hour on even-numbered days over the course of 1 month. Members of Group 3 will get light therapy every day for 1 hour over the course of 1 month. After 1 month, all participants will complete the Acme Mood Scale, consisting of 10 questions; this instrument renders a score between 1 and 100 (1 = Extremely bad mood . . . 100 = Extremely good mood). Additionally, each participant will respond to the Acme Self Care Survey, a selfadministered survey (5 = Strong self-neglect . . . 30 = Strong selfcare).

a. Write the hypotheses.
b. Run each criterion of the pretest checklist (n quota, normality, moderate correlation, homogeneity of variance-covariance [Box’s M test], and homogeneity of variance [Levene’s test]) and discuss your findings.
