    Role Type I error play in the following scenario

    What role does Type I error play in the following scenario? Suppose you had three independent groups that were randomly selected and randomly assigned. Why would you conduct an ANOVA at p = .05 instead of conducting three two sample t tests at p = .05? Explain how cumulative Type I error might affect your decision-making.
