If P-value a, fail to reject the null hypothesis of equal means. Ch. 1: Two-Way Analysis of Variance where z x = z score for x z y = z score for y Procedure: 1. Use software or a calculator to obtain results.. Test H 0 : There is no interaction between the row factor and column factor. 3. Stop if H 0 from Step is rejected. If H 0 from Step is not rejected (so there does not appear to be an interaction effect), proceed with these two tests: Test for effects from the row factor. Test for effects from the column factor. s y s x
