Q

what is the difference between T-test and ANOVA

Q

how many DF is there for an ANOVA

A

Q

what post hoc test do.u use when there are only small deviation form normality , sample sizes in each cell are equal and the variances are homogeneous

A

-bonferroni
-turkey

30
Q

what post hoc test do u use if variances are not homogenous

A

games-howell

31
Q

bonferroni and turkey are conservative and controls type __ error when is each more powerful

A

1
bonferroni is more power if the number of comparisons are small and turkey is more power if the number of comparisons are large

32
Q

what part in the research do u include the significance difference in

A

the results

33
Q

what is the non-parametric equivalent to an independent one-way ANOVA.

A

kruskal - wallis test

34
Q

when do u select the kruskal walllis test

A

when data doesn’t meet assumptions

35
Q

what does kruskal wallis test compare

A

compares mean ranks among the groups

36
Q

what are the follow up test for the kruskal wallis test

A

mann - whitney u test ( non-parametric equivalents to independent t-tests)

37
Q

for a repeated measures one way anova what do u test first and then what do u follow up with

A

perform a global or omnibus test first (is there a difference somewhere) and then follow up with bonferroni post hoc comparisons

38
Q

what is the assumptions that the variances of the differences between all possible pairs of groups (ex/ levels of the repeated IV) are equal.

A

sphericity

39
Q

what is the test for the assumption of sphericity called

A

the manuchleys test

40
Q

do you want the Manuchley’s test to be significant or not

A

no

41
Q

what values are used in a RM one way ANOVA if the assumptions (sphericity) is violated

A

EPsilon
- greenhouse
-hunyhn feldt
- lower bound

42
Q

if your sig is .188 on a RM one way anova is sphericity violated or not

A

no it has not been violated bc p > .05 it is only violated if the sig is < .05

43
Q

what does the 1St Degree of freedom for an anova represent

A

related to the # of groups - one

44
Q

what does the 2nd Degree of freedom for an anova represent

A

the # of participants per group

45
Q

what is the non parametric equivalent to a RM – one-way ANOVA

A

freiedmans ANOVA

46
Q

when runngin a friedman ANOVA, In SPSS this will give you the global result (is
there a difference somewhere)…and all pair-wise
comparisons are analyzed using ____ ___ __

A

Wilcoxon Signed Ranks.

47
Q

what is a two way independent anova

A

two + IV

48
Q

in a 2 way independent anova there are different participants in what condtions

A

all

49
Q

if there is more than one IV what is it called

A

a factorial design or a factorial anova analysis

50
Q

what is a benefit of a factorial deigns

A

we can look at how variables interact

51
Q

what do the interactions of the factorial design tell us

A

the effect of one IV depends on the vaule of another IV

52
Q

the first analysis of the ANOVA consists of ___ test

A

3

53
Q

what is included in the omnibus or global ANOVA

A

interaction
main effect for one IV test
main effect for second IV

54
Q

if the ___ is significant u don’t have to worry about the main effect

A

interaction

55
Q

on a graph when will the interaction not be significant

A

when they are parallel to each other

56
Q

when do u run simple effects

A

run after global and significant interaction

57
Q

if you run a global anova (interaction and main effects) and the main effect(s) and the interaction is not significant what do u do

A

run follow up main effect pairwis comparisons (post HOC comparison and adjust the alpha levle

58
Q

if there is only 2 levels for the main effect do u do a follow up test

A

no

59
Q

if you run a global anova (interaction and main effects) and the main effects are significant and the interaction is significant what do u run after

A

run simple effects and “forget: about the main effects and adjust the alpha level

60
Q

when do u run simple effects

A

only run if u have a significant interaction

61
Q

when u run simple effects can u adjust ur alpha ?

A

yes ofc

62
Q

you can only look for difference inside the ANOVA cells if what

A

u have a significant interaction

63
Q

•You can ONLY look for differences inside the ANOVA cells IF you have a significant interaction.
Otherwise you are forced to ONLY report the what

A

outcome of the main effects .. the main effect post hoc test if more then 2 levels

64
Q

if u have to many levels from ur anova what happens to the alpha

A

it get smaller

65
Q

to test for differences between group means when
we know that an extraneous/confounding variable
can affect the ____ variable.

A

outcome

66
Q

if u can identify the covariate and measure it what does that do to your analysis

A

strengthens it and more likely to find significance

67
Q

First, we use SPSS to determine if compliance really did affect the pain scores…if yes….we use SPSS to adjust the means to take this into account….so the difference isprimarily based on the intervention and not compliance.. any time an ANOVA is done this way what is it called

A

ANCOVA ,,, an analysis of covariance

68
Q

when we want to test for difference between groups when we have several DV’s what do we run

A

MANOVA

69
Q

why is running a MANOVA when testing for difference between groups when we have several DV’s better then running multiple ANOVAs

A

-controls family wise error rate (type 1)
- takes into account the relationships between the DVs , so more powerful then seperate ANOVAs

70
Q

what is the next step after a significant global MANOVA

A

DFA (discriminating function analysis )

71
Q

what is the discriminant analysis used to determine

A

which of the groups 4 DV’s are best at discriminating (separating) the groups
