Very flexible and general technique, and the principles can be applied to a wide range of statistical tests. |
ANOVA |
|
What variable do we measure in ANOVA? |
outcome variable |
|
What is the other term for the outcome variable? |
dependent variable |
|
This outcome must be measured on a |
continuous scale |
|
It is called dependent because it depends on one or more __________ variables. |
predictor |
|
variables that can be Manipulated or simply measure |
Predictor Variables |
|
In ANOVA, predictor variables are mostly ______? |
categorical |
|
When predictor variables are categorical, they are also called ___________ or _____________ |
FACTORS; INDEPENDENT VARIABLES |
|
what statistical test measures the differences between groups |
ANOVA |
|
In ANOVA, differences happen for two reasons: (a) because of the effect of ______ variables (b) because of _________ |
predictor; other reasons. |
|
What do we call the difference in ANOVA |
Variance |
|
Variance due to ________ measures differences between Group |
treatment |
|
Variance due to __________ measure differences within Group |
Error |
|
In ANOVA, the variance is conceptualized as sums of SDs from the _________. |
mean |
|
Sum of SDs can be denoted as ____? |
SS |
|
the variance that represents the difference between the groups |
SS(between) |
|
What other term can we use to denote SS(between)? |
SS(treatment) |
|
The ________ variance is the variance that we are actually interested in |
between-groups |
|
also called within-groups sum of squares. |
Error Sum of Squares |
|
people, who have had the same treatment, have different scores and it's because of error. So this is variance is called either _____ , or ________ |
SS(within) ; SS(error) |
|
sum of squared differences between the mean and each score |
SS(total) |
|
Effect Size goes under two different names: these are _______ or _______. |
R-Squared or eta-Squared |
|
df between = ___? |
(no. of groups) g- 1 |
|
What is the statistic (symbol) for ANOVA? |
F or F-ratio |
|
How many sets of df we need to find the probability value (p-value) associated with F |
2 - df(within) and df(between) |
|
ANOVA and ____ are exactly the same test |
t-test |
|
is we squared the value of t, what will we get? |
F-ratio value |
|
In ANOVA, what do we assume as normally distributed? |
the data within each group |
|
As with the t-test, we assume that the SD within each group is approximately equal. What states this? |
Homogeneity of Variance |
|
also called as simple-randomized groups design, independent groups design, or the single factor experiment, independent groups design. |
One way ANOVA |
|
one in which the effects of two or more factors or IVs are assessed in one experiment |
Factorial experiment |
|
With __________, conditions or treatments used are combinations of the levels of factors |
Factorial experiment |
|
More complicated ANOVA |
Two way ANOVA |
|
If factor A had three levels, the experiment would be called a 3 x 2, _______. |
two way ANOVA |
|
In a 2 x 4 x 3 design, there would be 3 factors having 2, 4, and 3 levels, respectively – this is called a _______ |
3 way ANOVA |
|
here, the levels of each factor were systematically chosen by the experimenter rather than being randomly chosen |
Fixed effects design |
|
what do we call it when we want to determine whether factor A has a significant effect, disregarding the effect of factor B.
|
the main effect of factor A |
|
what do we call it when we want to determine whether there is an interaction between factors A and B.
|
interaction effect of factors A and B. |
|
In analyzing data from a two-way ANOVA, we determine four variance estimates: (give atleast 2)
|
1. MS within cells 2. MS rows 3. MS columns 4. MS interaction |
|
The other estimates are sensitive to the effects of the ________ |
Independent Variables |
|
The estimate MS rows is called the _________ |
row variance estimate |
|
The estimate MS columns is called the __________. |
column variance estimate |
|
The estimate MS interaction is the ________. |
interaction variance estimate |
|
If variable A has no effect, MS rows is an independent estimate of the _______. |
σ-squared |
|
In a 2-way ANOVA, we partition the SS (total), into four components: |
1.SS (within-cells) , 2. SS (row) 3. SS (column) 4. SS (interaction) |
|
what tests do we use to answer the question of where the differences come from. |
Post Hoc tests |
|
“Post hoc” is Latin, and means. |
“after this” |
|
What problem might occur if we just use t-test when comparing groups? |
alpha inflation |
|

Type 1 |
|
A Type I error is where we reject a null hypothesis that is _______ |
true |
|
What assumption do we make for Bonferroni Correction |
homogeneity of variance |
|
Calculate df in Bonferroni correction |
df= N-2 |
|
The problem with Bonferroni is that it's not that precise. And the p-values required for statistical significance rapidly become _____. |
very small |
|
Why is homogeneity of variance is important? |
Homogeneity of variance means that the variances (standard deviations) of each of the groups that we are investigating are approximately equal. This is an assumption made by ANOVA and t-tests, and it is important for two reasons. First, we use the variance to estimate the standard error (and hence the confidence intervals and p-values). If we can assume homogeneity of variance, we can pool the variances from each group. If we estimate the variance with a larger number of people, the standard error will be smaller (because se = σ/√Ν ). And a smaller standard error means reduced confidence intervals, and lower p-values. Second, and perhaps more importantly, if we can assume homogeneity of variance, the calculations are much, much easier. |

Post hoc tests are based on ____? |
t-test |
