Analysis of Variance (ANOVA)
- ANOVA compares the averages of different groups to determine if the differences are statistically significant.
- ANOVA is a statistical method used to test for differences between group means.
- Between-subjects ANOVA compares different groups of participants.
- A between-subjects factor is a variable that divides participants into different groups for comparison.
- Error variance refers to the variability in data due to random factors, not the variables under investigation.
- Eta squared measures the proportion of variance in the dependent variable that is explained by the independent variable.
- Experiment-wise error rate is the probability of making at least one Type I error when performing multiple hypothesis tests.
- Factor refers to an independent variable in an experiment that can be manipulated or observed.
- F-distribution is a probability distribution used in hypothesis testing.
- Fisher’s protected t-test is a post-hoc test used after ANOVA to determine which specific group differences are significant.
