    Question

    Suppose a researcher has four averages for which she wants to calculate multiple comparison Tukey confidence intervals wants to calculate. There are four averages a total of six possible differences between averages and therefore six confidence intervals. For comparison, the researcher also calculates comparison also calculates the ordinary 95% confidence intervals. Two of these ordinary 95% confidence intervals are (8, 12) and (16, 20). Now what are possibly Tukey 95% confidence intervals that correspond to the above two ordinary confidence intervals?


    1. FALSE: (7, 11) and (15,19)
    2. TRUE: (7, 13) and (15, 21)
    3. FALSE: (9, 11) and (17, 19)

    1. (7, 11) and (15,19): Incorrect
    2. (7, 13) and (15, 21): Correct
    3. (9, 11) and (17, 19): Incorrect
