In an ANOVA study on the impact that various forms of cellphone use have on driving speed, a researcher concludes that there are no systematic treatment effects. What was the F-ratio closest to?

1.00

For the independent-measures ANOVA, the F-ratio is

F= MSbetween/MSwithin

An analysis of variance produces SS between = 64 and MS between = 8. In this analysis, how many treatment conditions are being compared?

MS between = SS between/df between, it follows that 8 = 64/df between, so df between = 8. Further, since df between = k - 1, 8 = k - 1, so k = 9. There are 9 treatment conditions being compared.

dfwithin + k =

N

SSbetween can be found by subtraction

SSbetween = SStotal - SSwithin

If the variance between treatments increases and the variance within treatments decreases, what will happen to the F-ratios and the likelihood of rejecting the null hypothesis in an ANOVA test?

The F-ratio and the likelihood of rejecting the null hypothesis will increase.

levels of the factor

The individual conditions that make up the factor.

n

The number of scores in each treatment

k

The number of treatment conditions

The assumptions underlying analysis of variance are similar to those for the t test for independent groups:

The observations are independent, and the populations from which the samples are taken are normally distributed and have equal variance. Each of the populations of scores from which the samples are drawn is normally distributed.

G

The sum of all of the scores in the research study

T

The sum of the scores for each treatment condition ΣX

N

The total number of scores in the entire study

What is suggested by a value of 1 for the F-ratio in an ANOVA?

There is no treatment effect and you should fail to reject the null hypothesis.

distribution of F-ratios

all possible F values that can be obtained when the null hypothesis is true.

treatment effect

cause of differences between treatments.

Tukey's HSD test

computation of single value that determines the minimum difference between treatment means necessary for significance.

The MSbetween measures

differences between the treatments by computing the variability of the treatment means or totals. These differences are assumed to be produced by - treatment effects (if they exist). - differences resulting from chance.

total

entire set of scores

k - 1

formula for between-treatments degrees of freedom

When there is no treatment effect (Ho is true), the numerator and the denominator of the F-ratio are

measuring the same variance, and the obtained ratio should be near 1.00.

A researcher is conducting an ANOVA test to measure the influence of the time of day on reaction time. Participants are given a reaction test at three different periods throughout the day: 7 a.m., noon, and 5 p.m. In this design, there are _______ factor(s) and ______ level(s).

one; three

eta squared

percentage of variance accounted for by the treatment effect in published reports of ANOVA results

MS =

s squared = SS/df

Each of the two variances in the F-ratio is calculated using the basic formula for sample variance.

s^2= SS/n-1

two-factor design or a factorial design

study that combines two variables

mean square

the average of the squared deviations

In ANOVA, the F test statistic is

the ratio of the between-treatments variance and the within-treatments variance.

In an analysis of variance, the primary effect of large mean differences within each sample is to increase the value for the ______.

variance within treatments

SSBetween

Σ T2/n - G2/N

The effect size for the independent-measures ANOVA is measured by computing eta squared η², the percentage of variance accounted for by the treatment effect.

η² = SSbetween / SSbetween + SSwithin or η² = SSbetween / SStotal

An analysis of variance is used to evaluate the mean differences for a research study comparing five treatment conditions with a separate sample of n = 6 in each treatment. SSbetween treatments = 24 and SStotal = 74, find the F-ratio.

The test statistic for ANOVA is a ratio of two variances called

F-ratio The variances in the F-ratio are called - mean squares or MS values - Each MS is computed by MS=SS/df

If SSbetween = 125 and SSwithin = 65, what is the effect size, η2, for the corresponding ANOVA?

If SSbetween = 125 and SSwithin = 65 Then SStotal = 125 + 65 = 190. So η2 = SSbetween/SStotal = 125/190 = 66%.

An analysis of variance is used to evaluate the mean differences for a research study comparing four treatment conditions and seven scores in each sample. How many total degrees of freedom are there?

If there are four treatment conditions with seven scores in each sample, then there are 4 × 7 = 28 scores. The total degrees of freedom is 28 - 1 = 27

F ratio formula

MS between/MS within

As the differences between sample means increase,

MSbetween also increases, and the F-ratio increases.

Increases in sample variability cause

MSwithin to increase and, thereby, decrease the F-ratio

dftotal

N-1

dfwithin

N-k

SStotal

SSbetween + SSwithin

The effect size, or η² (the Greek letter eta squared) and can be found using the formula

SSbetween/SStotal which is the ratio of the variability contributed by the treatment to the total variability

MSbetween

SSbetween/dfbetween

MSwithin

SSwithin/dfwithin

F

The F-ratio

A research report concludes that there are significant differences among treatments, with "F(3, 28) = 5.62, p < .01, η2 = 0.28." If the same number of participants was used in all of the treatment conditions, then how many individuals were in each treatment?

The citation states that dfwithin = 28 and dfbetween = 3. Therefore, the total degrees of freedom is 28 + 3 = 31. The total number of scores must be N = 31 + 1 = 32. Since dfbetween = 3, there must be 4 treatment conditions. If the number of participants in each treatment group is the same, then each group must have 32/4 = 8 participants

The within-treatments variance measures random, unsystematic differences within each of the samples assigned to each of the treatments.

These differences are not due to treatment effects because everyone within each sample received the same treatment; therefore, the differences are sometimes referred to as "error."

For an independent-measures experiment, the F-ratio is 3.1 If dfbetween = 5, and dfwithin = 14 what will the researcher conclude?

Using an F table, the critical value for dfbetween = 5 and dfwithin = 14 is 2.96 for α = .05 and 4.69 for α = .01 Therefore, the null hypothesis will be rejected for .05, but not for .01

n analysis of variance produced an F-ratio with df values 14, 1. If the same data had been evaluated with an independent-measures t test, what would df be?

With df = 14, 1, there were two treatment groups of 8 scores each. The same data in a t test would have df = (8 - 1) + (8 - 1) = 14.

ANOVA is to be used in a research study using two therapy groups. For each group, scores will be taken before the therapy, right after the therapy, and one year after the therapy. How many different sample means will there be?

With two therapies and three measurement times, there will be 2 × 3 = 6 different sample means

What will increase the likelihood of rejecting the null hypothesis using ANOVA?

a decrease of SSwithin an increase in the sample sizes

Both the F-ratio and the t statistic compare the _______________________ (numerator) with the _______________________ (the denominator if H₀ is true). If the numerator is sufficiently bigger than the denominator, you conclude that _____________________________________.

actual differences between sample means differences that would be expected if there is no treatment effect there is a significant difference between treatments.

post hoc tests

additional hypothesis test done after an ANOVA to determine whether mean differences are significant.

F = variance between-treatments / variance within-treatments

an increase in the numerator will increase the F -ratio a decrease in the denominator will further increase F. With an increased F-ratio, the likelihood for rejecting the null hypothesis will increase.

close to 1

F-ratio

What is the main advantage of ANOVA testing compared with t testing?

It can be used to compare two or more treatments.

If there is a significant treatment effect, the numerator of the ratio should be

larger than the denominator, and the obtained F value should be much greater than 1.00.

With three or more treatment conditions you need three or more t tests to evaluate all the _________ Each test involves a risk of Type I error. The more tests you do, the more risk there is of a Type I error occurring in any of the tests. The ____________ performs all of the tests simultaneously with a single, fixed ____________.

mean differences ANOVA alpha level

Reducing the size of the mean differences (M) would

reduce the size of MSbetween and would reduce the size of the F-ratio.

The MSwithin measures
