    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 (10, 14) and (22, 26). Now what are possibly Tukey 95% confidence intervals that correspond to the above two ordinary confidence intervals?


    1. FALSE: (9.5, 14.5) and (21.5, 25.5)
    2. FALSE: (11, 13) and (23, 25)
    3. TRUE: (9, 15) and (21, 27)

    1. (9.5, 14.5) and (21.5, 25.5): Incorrect
    2. (11, 13) and (23, 25): Incorrect
    3. (9, 15) and (21, 27): Correct
