Study Notes
ANOVA Results
- ANOVA results are typically displayed in an ANOVA table.
- The table includes sources of variation: the factor of study (e.g., lot), error, and total.
- Degrees of freedom (DF) are calculated for each source of variation.
- Sum of Squares (SS) represents the sum of squared deviations for each source and overall.
- Mean Square (MS) is the sum of squares divided by its degrees of freedom.
- F-ratio is the mean square of the factor divided by the mean square of error.
- Probability (Prob > F) is the p-value.
Sample ANOVA Table
- A sample ANOVA table displays degrees of freedom, sum of squares, mean squares, F ratios, and p-values for different sources.
- The table shows results for a study with five lots (e.g., lot 1, lot 2, lot 3, lot 4, lot 5) and observations in each lot.
- The results show the mean observation for each lot.
- The p-value (Prob > F) is exceptionally low (0.0012) for the lot, suggesting that the means for different lots are not equal statistically.
