Hi all,

This is my first time posting to Research Gate, I often look through posts for similar research questions I have of my own. I am in a Research Methods grad course and I am suppose to create a statistical hypothesis and choose a testing method for my study. I have developed this problem statement and research questions:

Problem Statement

The problem to be addressed is, how to effectively deliver take-over-requests (TOR) to get the quickest response time from a driver.

Research Questions

Overarching research questions to this problem statement is:

1) What type of take over request (TOR) is warrants the most efficient response time by driver?

2) How do response times between elderly drivers and young drivers differ?

3) Do elderly drivers respond better to certain stimuluses?

I want to test multiple TOR methods such as: Visual/audio, audio/haptic, audio, haptic and visual against two categorical age groups (young and old drivers), with my dependent variable being time.

Does a Two-way ANOVA sound appropriate for this? I've asked two different professors, one gave me a cryptic, you can't do that, type answer...and another one gave me an answer that i'm still uncertain of. Please let me know if i'm headed in the correct direction with this of if there is a better way.

Thank you.
