Final Answer : C, Explanation :  If an F ratio is less than the critical value, it indicates that the observed variance between groups is not significantly greater than the variance within groups, leading to a p-value greater than .05. This means there is not enough evidence to reject the null hypothesis, so we do not reject it.

If an F ratio is the critical value, I will the null hypothesis because __.

A) greater than; not reject; p < .05
B) greater than; reject; p > .05
C) less than; not reject; p > .05
D) less than; reject; p > .05
