Chapter 11- One Way ANOVA Flashcards
When will the F- distribution approach normal distribution?
The F distribution will approach normal distribution when there are large samples sizes
What other distribution is like the F-distribution?
The F distribution is like the T when there are only 2 samples
What is the F-statistic?
The F-Statistic is a ratio of two measures of variability
What are the two measures of variability with the F statistic?
Between-groups and within-groups
What is between-groups variance?
Between groups is the estimate of the population variance based on the spread between group means
What is within-groups variance?
Within groups variance estimate of the population variance based on the average variability within each group
How is the F-statistic calculated?
The F-statistic is calculated by dividing the between groups variance by the within groups variance
How do you increase the F-statistic?
The F statistic can be increased by increasing the variability between means or decreasing the variability within groups
What is a one-way ANOVA?
One nominal independent variable with more than 2 levels, scale dependent variable
What is a One Way Within Groups ANOVA?
One Way Within Groups ANOVA is more than 2 samples, composed of the same participants. Also called repeated measures
What is a One Way Within Groups ANOVA?
One Way Between Groups ANOVA is more than 2 samples, each composed of different people.
What are the assumptions of an ANOVA?
Random and independent, population distribution of dependent variable is normally distributed, and samples come from populations with same variance (homoscedasticity)
What is heteroscedasticity?
Heteroscedasticity is when samples come from different variances
What are the 6 steps of ANOVA Hypothesis Testing?
- Identify pops, distributions, and ck assumptions
- State null and research/alternative hypothesis
- Determine characteristics of null distribution
- Determine Critical Values
- Calculate test statistic
- Make a decision
How do you calculate the dfbetween?
Calculate the number of groups-1
