The number of groups minus 1 in an ANOVA analysis.

Total number of observations minus the number of groups.

Total number of observations minus 1.

Calculated by dividing the sum of squares between groups by its degrees of freedom.

Calculated by dividing the sum of squares within groups by its degrees of freedom.

Ratio of mean square between groups to mean square within groups.

Analysis for a study with one outcome and two categorical explanatory variables.

Determines if the effect of one factor depends on the level of another factor in two-way ANOVA.

The average height of all plants combined.

Average height for plants that are watered daily.

Average height for plants that are watered weekly.

A measure of variance among different watering frequencies.

Average height of plants with no sunlight exposure.

Average height of plants exposed to low sunlight.

Measure of variance among different sunlight exposures.

Variance within groups due to measurement error.

A single number measuring the relationship between two variables.

Unitless value from -1 to 1 indicating correlation strength and direction.

Represents the relationship strength between the independent and dependent variables in regression.

Measures the proportion of variance in the dependent variable explained by the independent variable; ranges from 0 to 1.

A statistical method for modeling the relationship between a dependent variable and one or more independent variables using a straight line.

Indicates the direction and strength of a linear relationship between two variables; ranges from -1 to 1.

A statistical method used to assess the association between two variables and predict outcomes.

A measure of the strength and direction of the linear relationship between two variables.

r = (Sum of xy) / (sqrt(Sum of x^2) * sqrt(Sum of y^2))

The total sum of the products of deviations of two variables from their respective means.

The total of squared deviations of x from its mean, measures variability in x.

The total of squared deviations of y from its mean, measures variability in y.

X and Y are data points used for correlation analysis; their deviations are used in calculations.

The difference between a value and the mean of that dataset, represented as x or y.

Matching sets of values from two variables, used to compute the correlation.

The average values of X and Y datasets, respectively; used to calculate deviations.

The position of values in a sorted order; helps in non-parametric correlation calculations.

A regression model using one independent variable to predict a dependent variable.

The value of Y when the independent variable X is zero in a linear equation.

The change in Y for a unit change in X, reflecting the relationship's steepness.

Equations used to calculate the coefficients of a linear regression model.

A regression model accommodating nonlinear relationships by fitting curves.

A type of curvilinear regression using polynomial equations of various degrees.

An equation of the form Y = a + b1X + b2X^2, producing a parabola.

A variable in a regression model that is manipulated to observe its effect on the dependent variable.
