Instructions In this assignment, you will conduct research in the ECPI Online Library and develop an analysis of that research. After reviewing this week’s required and recommended materials on analysis of variance and covariance, access the ECPI Library’s ProQuest database and search for a research journal (peer-reviewed or scholarly) article of your own personal interest under the umbrella of business or management. The topic should be one that you have an interest in and it must contain a study that has used empirical data and applied either the ANOVA or ANCOVA statistical tool. You may be able to use the same article from a previous week as long as the statistical tool used in that article was ANOVA or ANCOVA. Possible examples can include: Factors affecting employee retention The use of emotional intelligence in sales The impact of social media on employee behaviors The impact of Lean Six Sigma in operations management efficiency The impact of the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (PPACA) on medical providers The high rate of IT-based project failures These videos might prove helpful for this assignment: Eisenberg, J.D.

Briefly describe the research question that was examined in the article and discuss the data that was used in the study. Identify and describe the ANOVA or ANCOVA statistical analysis used in the study. Explain if the researchers had any special considerations for the ANOVA/ANCOVA they used in the study. Write a brief conclusion on the outcome of the study.
