Analysis of Variance

QuestionAnswer
Inflation of Type I Error Each t-test has a type I error of alpha, however over a series of multiple t-tests the overall type I error does not stay at alpha but grows w/ each new comparison.
Analysis of Variance (ANOVA) Compares multiple pop. means that avoids the inflation of type I error rates. Test one null hypothesis to determine if any of the pop. mean differ from the rest. Type I error remains at alpha. Use w/ interval/ratio data.
One-Factor ANOVA "One factor" mean that b/w all groups, there is only one source of variation investigated.
Independent Sample ANOVA Assumptions Population: all pops. are normally dist., all pops. have same variance. Sampling: samples are independent of one another, each sample obtained by SRS from pop.
Mean Square Within/Error Pool all the sample variances. When the sample sizes are the same the pooled variance is the average of the individual sample variances. DF=N-k N:total # of obs. k:# diff. pop. Good estimate of pop. variance when null is correct & incorrect.
Mean Square Among/Treatment Based on the sample means. DF=k-1. Good estimate of pop. variance only when null is correct.
Two Main Points MSW is based on variability w/n each sample. MSA only good when all sample means can be considered from same pop. If null is true, MSA & MSW should be similar & ratio should be close to 1.
Partitioning the Sum of Squares SSA:among groups sum of squares df=k-1. SSW:w/n groups sum of squares df=N-k. SST:total sum of squares SSW+SSA df=N-1.
One-Factor ANOVA for Dependent Samples Goal is to decide if there is a difference among the dependent pop. means. Randomized complete block (two-way) & repeated measures. MST has k-1 df & MSE has N-k-b+1 df. SSB has b-1 df. SST has N-1 df.
Dependent Samples Assumptions Population: normally dist. pops., variances are same, scores in all pairs of pops. should have same degree of relationship. Sample: samples are dependent, observations come from SRS from pop.

Use these flashcards to help memorize information. Look at the large card and try to recall what is on the other side. Then click the card to flip it. If you knew the answer, click the green Know box. Otherwise, click the red Don't know box.

When you've placed seven or more cards in the Don't know box, click "retry" to try those cards again.

If you've accidentally put the card in the wrong box, just click on the card to take it out of the box.

You can also use your keyboard to move the cards as follows:

If you are logged in to your account, this website will remember which cards you know and don't know so that they are in the same box the next time you log in.

When you need a break, try one of the other activities listed below the flashcards like Matching, Snowman, or Hungry Bug. Although it may feel like you're playing a game, your brain is still making more connections with the information to help you out.

To see how well you know the information, try the Quiz or Test activity.
