•A one-way ANOVA is used for three or

more groups of data, to gain information


about the relationship between the
dependent and independent variables.
•If no true variance exists between the
groups, the ANOVA's F-ratio should
equal close to 1.
• Analysts use the ANOVA test to
determine the influence that independent
variables have on the dependent variable
in a regression study.
•The t- and z-test methods were used for
statistical analysis.

DEFINITION OF TERMS
Two-Way ANOVA
A two-way ANOVA test is a statistical
test used to determine the effect of two
nominal predictor variables on a
continuous outcome variable.

Analysis Of Variances (ANOVA)


•Analysis of variances (ANOVA) is a
statistical examination of the differences
between all of the variables used in an
experiment.
•Analysis of variance, or ANOVA, is a
statistical method that separates observed
variance data into different components
to use for additional tests.
into two parts: systematic factors and
random factors.
T-Test Definition
A t-test is a type of inferential statistic
used to determine if there is a significant
difference between the means of two
groups, which may be related in certain
features.

Degrees of Freedom Definition


Degrees of Freedom refers to the
maximum number of logically
independent values, which are values that
have the freedom to vary, in the data
sample.
Heteroskedasticity
In statistics, heteroskedasticity happens
when the standard deviations of a
variable, monitored over a specific
amount of time, are nonconstant.

How Residual Sum of Squares (RSS)


Works
A residual sum of squares is a statistical
technique used to measure the variance
in a data set that is not explained by the
regression model.

Example of How to Use ANOVA


A researcher might, for example, test
students from multiple colleges to see if
students from one of the colleges
consistently outperform students from
the other colleges. In a business
application, an R&D researcher might
test two different processes of creating a
product to see if one process is better
than the other in terms of cost efficiency.

The Formula for ANOVA is:


F=MST
MSE
where:
F= ANOVA COEFFICIENT
MST=Mean sum of squares due to
treatment
MSE=Mean sum of squares due to error

What Does the Analysis of Variance


Reveal?
The ANOVA test is the initial step in
analyzing factors that affect a given data
set. Once the test is finished, an analyst
performs additional testing on the
methodical factors that measurably
contribute to the data set's inconsistency.
The analyst utilizes the ANOVA test
results in an f-test to generate additional
data that aligns with the proposed
regression models.
One-Way ANOVA Versus Two-Way
ANOVA

There are two types of ANOVA: one-


way (or unidirectional) and two-way.
One-way or two-way refers to the
number of independent variables in your
analysis of variance test. A one-way
ANOVA evaluates the impact of a sole
factor on a sole response variable. It
determines whether all the samples are
the same. It is also used to determine
whether there are any statistically
significant differences between the
means of three or more independent
(unrelated) groups.

A two-way ANOVA is an extension of


the one-way ANOVA. With a one-way,
you have one independent variable
affecting a dependent variable. With a
two-way ANOVA, there are two
independents. For example, a two-way
ANOVA allows a company to compare
worker productivity based on two
independent variables, such as salary and
skill set. It is utilized to observe the
interaction between the two factors and
tests the effect of two factors at the same
time.
