Study Notes
Independent Samples T-Test
- Compares the means of two independent groups to determine whether there is a significant difference between the associated population means.
- Requires equal variances, independence, and normal distribution.
- Used to determine if there is a statistically significant difference between the population means.
- Example: comparing the means of two groups (e.g., males and females) to see if there is a significant difference between them.
Experimental Design
- Between-subjects design, where two or more independent groups are compared.
- Unpaired t-test, where two independent samples are compared.
- Used to compare the means of two independent groups.
Two-Way ANOVA (Factorial ANOVA)
-
Compares the means of two or more groups based on two or more factors (nominal IV).
-
Used to test the interaction between the two factors and their effects on the DV.
-
Example: exploring the effect of age group (adolescence, young adulthood, middle adulthood) and gender on a particular outcome.### Hypothesis Testing
-
A T-Test is used to determine whether the mean of a population is statistically different from a known or hypothesized value.
-
It tests whether the variable's mean is compared against a "test value" which is a known or hypothesized value of the mean in the population.
Linear Regression
- Linear Regression is used to predict the unknown value of a variable (Y) using the known value of another variable (X).
- The linear regression equation is Y = a + bX, where a and b are unknown constants.
- The coefficient of Y (b) will change if there is an increase in X.
- Linear Regression is used to predict the unknown value of Y when the value of X is known.
Coefficient of Determination
- The coefficient of determination is a measure of how well the independent variable (X) explains the variation in the dependent variable (Y).
ANOVA
- ANOVA (Analysis of Variance) is used to determine whether there is a significant difference between the means of two or more groups.
- One-Way ANOVA is used to compare the means of one independent variable across three or more groups.
- The results of One-Way ANOVA and independent samples T-Test are equivalent when there are only two groups.
- ANOVA is denoted as F and is used to determine whether the differences found between treatment conditions are significantly greater than would be expected if there is no treatment effect.
- Within-Subjects, Repeated Measures is a type of ANOVA that is used to determine whether the differences found between treatment conditions are significantly greater than would be expected if there is no treatment effect.
One-Way ANOVA
- One-Way ANOVA is used to compare the means of one independent variable across three or more groups.
- It is used to determine whether there is a significant difference between the means of three or more groups.
- The dependent variable (DV) has one or more groups, and the independent variable (IV) has one or more levels.
Between-Groups ANOVA
- Between-Groups ANOVA is used to compare the means of two or more independent groups.
- The dependent variable (DV) has two or more groups, and the independent variable (IV) has one or more levels.
- It is used to determine whether there is a significant difference between the means of two or more independent groups.
