Questions and Answers

What is multivariate analysis primarily used for?

    Study Notes

    Multivariate Analysis

    • Used to study complex data sets compared to univariate analysis.
    • Primarily conducted using software like SPSS or SAS due to the complexity of the data.
    • Helps to reduce the likelihood of Type 1 errors.
    • Can be difficult to interpret the results of the test.
    • Not suitable for small data sets.
    • There are numerous methods of performing multivariate analysis.
    • Choosing the right method depends on your data and goals.

    ANOVA

    • Used to determine if survey or experiment results are statistically significant.
    • Helps to determine if the null hypothesis should be rejected or the alternative hypothesis should be accepted.
    • Used to test groups for differences.

    One-way ANOVA

    • One independent variable (IV) with 2 levels.
    • Tests the effects of one factor on a dependent variable.

    Two-way ANOVA

    • Two independent variables, each with multiple levels.
    • Tests the effects of two factors on a dependent variable.
    • Tests for interactions between factors.

    Two-way ANOVA: Main and Interaction Effects

    • Main effect: Evaluates the effect of each factor independently.
    • Interaction effect: Examines the combined effect of both factors.
    • Interaction effects are easier to test when there are multiple observations in each cell.

    Replication in ANOVA

    • With Replication: Two groups with multiple measurements (e.g., different tests) per individual within each group.
    • Without Replication: One group taking multiple measurements (e.g., multiple tests).

    Assumptions of Two-Way ANOVA

    • The population should be normally distributed.
    • Samples should be independent.
    • Variances of the populations should be equal (homoscedasticity).
    • Groups should ideally have equal sample sizes.

    Factorial ANOVA

    • An extension of two-way ANOVA, with multiple factors and levels.
    • Enables the study of complex interactions between factors.
    • Used when there are more than two independent variables.
