When Celia was trying to woo Zach, she looked at whether there was a significant association between how you rated the costs and rewards of your relationship and openness to alternative relationships. She decided to see whether you could manipulate a person’s openness to alternative relationships. She took five people and asked them to list all the costs and rewards of their current relationship, then asked them to rate their openness to alternative relationships. At another point in time she asked the same people to study a list of potential costs to being in a relationship and again got them to rate their openness to alternative relationships. At a final point in time she asked the same people to study a list of potential benefits or rewards to being in a relationship and again got them to rate their openness to alternative relationships. Each person completed these tasks a week apart and in random order. The data are in Table 16.14. Use these values to compute the F-ratio. Is openness to alternative relationships affected by focusing on lists of potential costs or rewards compared to generating your own costs and rewards?
