Week 6 - One-Way Anova Flashcards
One - Way Anova
Can express every ANOVA as a regression
Modelling information from Y by looking at groups (Why are some people low or high on Y)
Experiment conditions allow to
Determine the differences between means of groups
Null for ANOVA
Groups come from the same population (if different between groups - null is rejected)
Is difference far enough away from 0 to reject the null
How to reject Null
Variation within the groups becomes important
SD used to estimate the SE of the difference between the means (groups)
If more than 1.96 = Significant difference
Null suggest that differences due to random individual difference ( if correct would be no significant effect of X (systematic variation)
Grand mean
Mean of all the means
Group mean
Mean of participants in one group
Variation
Total - Data point - Grand Mean
Systematic - Group mean - Grand Mean
Residual - Group mean - data point (Not accounted for by being int he group)
Anova
In ANOVA difference between groups is equivalent to systematic variation in regression
Every data point have the same systematic variation as every other data point in that group
Line of best fit
Connect the mean of both group means (Grand Mean )
Can create variance in the outcome
Experimental manipulation vs control group
Try to make groups vary as much as possible
Variance already occurring in an outcome
Non experimental or quasi experimental design
Regression VS ANOVA
Regression look for covariance between X and Y (How they vary together) - Systematic
ANOVA- Difference between means show the systematic effect
Variation of Y within different groups of X, index of random variation in Y within groups that are treated the same
ANOVA = In true experiment all other systematic source will stay in error term and will not covary with Y
Regression = Systematic variance not accounted for by X, will covary with Y and effect it (specification so important!)
ANOVA = Factor Regression = Variable
Random Assignment
Effect interpretation of ANOVA
GLM and ANOVA
Data = obtained sample variance in Y Variance = by how much are scores equal to the mean
Similarities ANOVA and Regression
Both address same mathematical equation
Follow same GLM procedure
