A study compared three display panels used by air traffic controllers. Each display panel was tested for four different simulated emergency conditions. Twenty-four highly trained air traffic controllers were used in the study. Two controllers were randomly assigned to each display panel-emergency condition combination. The time (in seconds) required to stabilize the emergency condition was recorded. The following table gives the resulting data and the JMP output of a two-way ANOVA of the data.

Then test for interaction with a=.05. Answer is complete and correct. Panel B requires less time to stabilize the emergency condition. F(int)= .0.6074, p-value= .0.7205; cannot reject HO, no interaction exists. (b) Test the significance of display panel effects with a = .05. Answer is complete and correct. F = 30.1778, p-value = .0001; reject HO (c) Test the significance of emergency condition effects with a = .05. Answer is complete and correct. F = 112.7407, p-value = .0001; reject HO (d) Make pairwise comparisons of display panels A, B, and C by using Tukey simultaneous 95 percent confidence intervals.(Round your answers to 4 decimal places. Negative amounts should be indicated by a minus sign.)

Does your answer depend on the emergency condition? Why? Answer is complete and correct. Panel B minimizes the time required to stabilize an emergency condition. No there is no interaction. (g) Calculate a 95 percent (individual) confidence interval for the mean time required to stabilize emergency condition 4 using display panel B. (Round your answers to 2 decimal places.) Answer is complete but not entirely correct. Confidence interval [ 6.32 x 12.68]
