    Question

    The following three group means are found: y1=12\bar{y}_1 = 12, y2=8\bar{y}_2 = 8 and y3=10\bar{y}_3 = 10. Group 3 is the reference category. We look at the corresponding estimated ANOVA model, but present it as a regression model with dummy variables. The formula is: ŷ=10+2Z12Z2\hat{y} = 10 + 2Z_1 - 2Z_2. What would the estimated model look like if group 1 were chosen as the reference category?


    1. FALSE: ŷ=102Z1+2Z2\hat{y} = 10 - 2Z_1 + 2Z_2
    2. FALSE: ŷ=12+2Z12Z2\hat{y} = 12 + 2Z_1 - 2Z_2
    3. FALSE: ŷ=122Z1+2Z2\hat{y} = 12 - 2Z_1 + 2Z_2
    4. TRUE: ŷ=124Z12Z2\hat{y} = 12 - 4Z_1 - 2Z_2
