My suggestion would be to conduct a MANOVA. The difference between an ANOVA and a MANOVA is that whereas an ANOVA deals with one dependent variable, a MANOVA deals with two. I would also recommend a 2-way analysis. The researcher originally wanted to test whether one of the three methods of training, the traditional model, the computer model, and the video model , have any effect on math anxiety. The researcher, in other words, is playing around with three independent variables and seeing whether they have any effect on one dependent variable: Maths anxiety In this case, the researcher would be correct in choosing to employ/ use an ANOVA. However, now the researcher wants to see whether the same three independent variables have any impact on two dependent variables: 1. maths anxiety, and 2. anxiety in public speaking. Here, his statistics become more complex since he is analyzing, not one, but two completely different situations. I would therefore recommend him to use a MANOVA for doing so. I would also advise him to do a 2-way research. He does not need to do two separate one-way ANOVAs; that would make it more complex.

This paper provides a review of the relevant literature to provide the ethical background, the positive and negative aspects of the ethical dilemma. The rationale in support of the selection of the decision-making model is followed by a description of the selected ethical decision-making model, its application to the ethical dilemma. A summary of the research and important findings based on the model application are presented in the conclusion.

The way training is delivered in a corporate environment has a tremendous effect on results. This study investigates the role of culture in the learning styles of adult French and American students enrolled in online training programs at an international university. Using Kolb's learning style inventory, the learning style preferences of respondents in both cultural groups will be classified as divergers, convergers, accommodators, and assimilators, reflecting their general tendencies toward learning environments as conceptualized by Kolb (1985). The assumption is that Americans prefer to learn from action-oriented methods and are more comfortable learning from activities that are not job related, such as role plays and games, than do their French counterparts who prefer to learn from job-related activities based on solid research. These preferences will then be examined in light of learners' responses to Hofstede's Culture in the Workplace questionnaire, which examines cultural tendencies towards collectivism/individualism, power orientation, uncertainty avoidance, masculinity, and long/short term orientation (Hofstede, 1980). The sample population will be composed of 150 American and 150 French trainees. They are all employed in multinationals and hold jobs that require them to attend corporate training and travel around the world. Conclusions will be drawn which compare French and American cultural differences in learning style preferences and the extent to which these preferences are mediated by cultural orientations as conceptualized by Hofstede (1980). Results will assist multinational corporations in understanding the role of culture in their training scenarios as they seek to provide more effective training for their increasingly cultural diverse learner populations which can provide some proof that they will be successful in using the new skills.
