Study Notes
ANOVA Test
- The analysis of variance (ANOVA) is a statistical method for comparing the means of multiple groups.
- It is important to ensure that data meets specific statistical assumptions before using ANOVA.
- This is because the method relies on these assumptions for accurate results.
One-way ANOVA Test
- One-way ANOVA is used to determine if there is a difference in the mean of a dependent variable across two or more independent groups.
- This test is typically used with three or more groups.
One-way ANOVA Test Assumptions
- The dependent variable should be measured at the continuous level, which allows for measurement and analysis of differences in means.
- The independent variable should be composed of two or more categorical, independent (unrelated) groups.
- There should be independence of observations, meaning that there is no relationship between the observations within each group or between the groups themselves.
- Data should be free of significant outliers.
- The dependent variable should be approximately normally distributed for each category of the independent variable.
- There needs to be homogeneity of variances, meaning the variance of the dependent variable should be similar across all groups.
Elements of a Designed Experiment
- The response variable is a variable of interest that is measured in the experiment. This is also called the dependent variable.
- Factor levels are the different values of a factor used in the experiment.
- Treatments refer to the specific combinations of factor levels in an experiment
- The experimental unit is the object on which the response variable and factors are observed or measured.
Analysis of Variance (Formula)
- An F-statistic is used to test the null hypothesis that the means are equivalent across groups against the alternative hypothesis that at least two group means differ.
ANOVA Summary Table
- The test statistic for ANOVA is F = MST / MSE, where MST is the mean square for treatment and MSE is the mean square for error.
- Degrees of freedom are used to calculate the F statistic and are denoted by v1 and v2.
- v1 = k -1 represents the numerator degrees of freedom, where k is the number of groups.
- v2 = n - k represents the denominator degrees of freedom, where n is the total sample size.
ANOVA F-Test Critical Value
- If the group means are equal, the F statistic will be approximately 1.
