Q

Which analysis of variance (ANOVA) is more sensitive to to detecting a statistically significant outcome? Why?

Q

Q

Why not just use the t-test for comparisons of more than two groups? What kind of test reduces this problem.

A

Repeated use of the t-test can result in an increase in TYPE 1 error.

Q

What is a type 1 error?

Q

When calculating ANOVA, if the calculated ratio is large, then the treatment effect is ______ compared to ______ ________ __________. IF this is the case we can conclude that treatment LIKELY made a difference and that these is a statistically significant outcome.

A

When calculating ANOVA, if the calculated ratio is large, then the treatment effect is LARGE compared to MEASUREMENT ERROR. IF this is the case we can conclude that treatment LIKELY made a difference and that these is a statistically significant outcome.

18
Q

The most important assumption that needs to be met before conduction an ANOVA.

A

The DV must be measured on either an interval or ratio scale

19
Q

The assumption that variability across the treatment conditions will be similar is_______________ and must be met before an ANOVA can be conducted.

A

Homogeneity of Variance: see page 206 for ways to state this using statistical notation because this shit program will not allow changes of font.

20
Q

If we want the standard deviation for each condition to be similar we are referring to..

A

Homogeneity of Variance

21
Q

One way of determining if homogeneity of variances (HOV) exist is by looking at the ______ of the graphs of each condition. If they are all different you have ________ of variance. What else can this graph tell us?

A

Kurtosis, heterogeneity ( think heterosexual people like opposite or different sex- we WANT HOMOS)
It can also tell us to what degree we have normal distribution of error .

22
Q

The Hartley F-Max test is one way of testing

A

Homogeneity of Variance

23
Q

The Levene’s Test of Equality of variances is one way of testing

A

Homogeneity of Variance

24
Q

The F-statistic is the ratio of ______ to ______variance used to detect _____ _______.

A

The F-statistic is the ratio of TREATMENT to ERROR variance used to detect STATISTICAL SIGNIFICANCE.

25
Q

If the variances are not equal among the groups at what point would the assumption be violated?

A

If one variance is four times larger than another then we have not met this assumption required to complete an ANOVA.

26
Q

If assumptions are not met for an ANOVA what statistical tests would you consider

A

Non parametric tests

27
Q

Two assumptions that must absolutely be met before conducting a ANOVA

A
  • Dv must be interval or ration

- Homogenity of variances must be assumed (cannot have one more than 4 times larger than another)

28
Q

Independence of observations refers to:

A

ensuring that observations or data in each treatment condition are independent. That is to say, no person is measured in more than one condition.

29
Q

When conducting and ANOVA we are interested in calculating three measures of variability. They are…

A
  1. total variance
  2. error variance
  3. variance between groups
30
Q

First step in calculating an ANOVA is to calculate the…

A

Total variance or SStotal

pg 208

31
Q

Second step in calculating an ANOVA is to calculate the..

* hint S squared

A

approximation of an average deviation from the mean. (Divide SStotal by dftotal)
df total = all of the scores from all conditions minus 1.
pg 208

32
Q

Variability between groups reflects

A

the effect of the treatments

33
Q

Variability within groups reflects

A

individual differences among individuals in a single treatment, or error variance

34
Q

variability between individuals participating in the same condition. Also used as the __________denominator for ANOVA

A

Error variance

35
Q

When tabulating data for a source table, we want a ______ difference between groups and a ___________ difference within groups.

A

Large, small

36
Q

If you use three levels of an IV how many comparisons are possible? What if you use four levels?

A

3, 6

37
Q

Tukeys Post Hoc test is also referred to as the …

A

Honesty Significant Difference

38
Q

The HSD or Tukey’s Post Hoc test requires what kind of sample sizes?

A

equal.

39
Q

what reflects the amount of error present across all conditions?

A

MSerror

40
Q

When calculating the Tukey HSD what three values do we need:

A

q, MSerror and n (only the sample size NOT the population)

41
Q

What four things do we need to calculate q for the HSD?

A

k: number of treatments
an alpha (ex: .05)
and dferror
q table- also called the studentized range statistic table.

42
Q

What is the benefit to using a Scheffe Test instead of Tukey’s

A

Does not require equal groups

43
Q

what is the estimate of the proportion of variability explained by the independent variable- or strength of association

A

effect size
