A researcher is evaluating the effectiveness of a substance abuse treatment program for jail inmates. The researcher categorizes inmates into three groups: those who completed the program, those who started it and dropped out, and those who never participated at all. He follows up with all people in the sample six months after their release from jail and asks them whether or not they have used drugs since being out. He codes drug use into two groups, as 0 = no and 1 = yes. He plans to analyze the data using an ANOVA. Is this the correct analytic approach? Fully explain your why you come to this conclusion.
