Questions and Answers

In a one-factor ANOVA, what conclusion can be drawn if the calculated F-statistic exceeds the critical F-value?

  • Fail to reject the null hypothesis due to a mistake in the calculation.
  • Reject the null hypothesis because there is evidence that all variances are equal.
  • Fail to reject the null hypothesis because there is no evidence of a difference in the means.
  • Reject the null hypothesis because there is evidence that at least one of the means is different. (correct)

What is the primary purpose of the analysis of variance (ANOVA) procedure?

  • To determine if the variances of two or more samples are equal.
  • To determine if the means of two or more populations are equal. (correct)
  • To determine if the means of two samples are equal.
  • To determine if the means of two or more samples are equal.

Which of the following assumptions is crucial for the validity of an ANOVA test?

  • The means associated with the dependent variable must be equal for each population.
  • The dependent variable of interest for each population has a normal distribution. (correct)
  • The variance associated with the dependent variable of interest must be independent for each population.
  • All of the above assumptions are required.

Analysis of Variance (ANOVA)

A statistical approach for determining if the means of two or more populations are equal.

F Statistic vs. Critical F Value

In ANOVA, if the F statistic exceeds the critical F value, you reject the null hypothesis, indicating that at least one of the means is different.

Required ANOVA Assumption

A required assumption is that the dependent variable of interest for each population has a normal distribution

Error Sum of Squares (SSE)

This is the sum of squares due to error, representing the variability within each group.

Study Notes

  • These notes pertain to a sample exam for ISDS 2001, covering topics in analysis of variance(ANOVA).

One-Factor ANOVA

  • If the computed F statistic exceeds the critical F value, the null hypothesis (Hâ‚€) should be rejected
  • Rejecting Hâ‚€ indicates evidence that at least one of the means are different
  • The analysis of variance procedure is a statistical approach to determine whether means of two or more populations are equal

Assumptions for ANOVA

  • The dependent variable of interest for each population has a normal distribution

Plywood Strength Experiment

  • An engineer measures the strength of 20 plywood boards for each of three types of glue used.
  • The data is used in a One-Way ANOVA.

Grand Mean Calculation

  • To calculate the grand mean (average) of all values, you would consider all the groups count, sum and averages in excel to determine of grand mean of 40.27

Error Degrees of Freedom

  • The error degrees of freedom for the plywood experiment is 57
  • Calculated as the total number of observations (20 boards x 3 glues = 60) minus the number of groups (3 glues)
  • Degrees of freedom between treatments(c) for the experiment is 2

Error Sum of Squares (SSE)

  • The error sum of squares (SSE) for the plywood experiment is 1301.10.

Mean Square Treatment (MSTR)

  • MSTR is 95.32

Mean Square Error (MSE)

  • MSE for the plywood experiment is 22.83

F-Statistic Calculation

  • The F-Stat is found to be 4.18, this is found dividing the MS for Between Groups by the MS for Within Groups.
  • F = 95.31667/22.82632 = 4.18

Critical Value at 5% Significance

  • The critical value at the 5% significance level is 3.35

Estimated P-Value

  • P-value at the 5% significance level is greater than 0.10

Conclusion at 5% Significance Level

  • The population means are not all equal
  • The p-value is less than the alpha level

Hypothesis Test Conclusion

  • With a statistical value of with the F-Stat at 23.34 and a critical value of 3.35, the null hypothesis is rejected
  • The conclusion states the population means are not all equal

Tukey-Kramer Procedure

  • The Tukey-Kramer procedure is used to test the difference in regional sales between Region 1 and Region 2
  • The critical range is 2.06, with a 0.05 level of significance

Q Critical Value

  • With error degrees of freedom of 23 and 3 treatment groups, the Q critical value at the 5% significance level is 3.56

Interpretation of Tukey-Kramer Results

  • Do not reject the null, the sample mean difference is less than the critical range.

  • Factor B represents the rows in a two-way ANOVA test without interaction

Critical F-Value

  • The critical F-value for the two-way ANOVA without interaction for Factor A with F(2,4) = 5.45 and alpha = 0.01 is 18.00

Degrees of Freedom

  • For a two-way ANOVA without interaction, the degrees of freedom for Factor B, where there are 4 rows and 5 columns is 3

Excel Output Analysis

  • Using the Excel output from a work shift using 4 different machines, the Mean Sum of Squares for Factor A (MSA) is 1916.58
  • The F-stat for Factor A is 0.57 (Columns)
  • the F-stat for Factor B (rows) is 8.71
  • The critical value for Factor A at the 5% significance level is 5.14
