7. UAV switch experiment, continued The UAV switch experiment, introduced in Sect. 19.8.3, was run using a 2 × 2 split-plot design with 16 subjects as whole plots, with two levels of alert type (A) assigned to whole-plots, and with two levels of complexity (B) assigned to split plots. Another response variable measured by the experimenter was the alert detection time (in seconds), yielding the data shown in Table 19.37. Using model (19.8.20), p. 734, conduct the following analyses.

(a) Construct an analysis of variance table. For each main effect and interaction in the treatment factors, determining which effects are significant at the 1% level.

(b) Construct a 95% confidence interval for the main effect of alert type, and interpret the results.

(c) For each level of complexity, compare the effects of the two levels of alert type, using individual 99% confidence intervals.
