(3) Presentation of ANOVA (Analysis of Variance) Results:

For simple factorial designs, elaborate on the results in the main text and provide the F, df, p, MSE, and effect size for significant and non-significant cases. However, as the design becomes more complex (e.g., within-subjects/between-subjects, hierarchical design), the ANOVA table is presented to enhance the expertise of the analysis. In this case, omit SS and MS, except for MSE, but always include the effect size. Please refer to the attached file for an example of the ANOVA table.
