Hello,
I am running error rate analysis. It is my results below. When I compare
aov1 and aov2, X square = 4.05, p = 0.044, which indicates that adding the
factor "Congruity" improved the fitting of model. However, the following Z
value is less than 1 and p value for Z is 1, which means that "Congruity"
is not significant at all. Therefore, these two parts are not consistent,
one is sig., the other is not. I cannot figure out why they are so
different and inconsistent? Which p value I should report? Any comments are
appreciated.
