An experimenter wanted to test the hypothesis that women who eat large meals are not liked as well as women who eat smaller quantities of food by using the one factor repeated measures design. Participants in the study watched a videotape of a woman eating a small nutritious snack, a normal meal, or a huge meal while talking to another person. Each participant viewed three different versions of
the videotape, each with a different woman (Pat, Sue, and Deb) eating a different amount of food. After viewing the videotape, participants filled out a questionnaire about how much they liked each of the women they had seen in the videos. In this experiment, the alternative hypothesis states that _____.
a. there will be no differences between the control and experimental groups
b. women will be liked differently based on the amount of food they eat
c. there will be differences between the control and experimental groups
d. women will be liked the same, regardless of how much food they eat

In a repeated measures design, there are no separate "groups.". The alternative hypothesis indicates that the treatment causes the effect on the dependent variable.
