Download or read book A Student s Guide to Analysis of Variance written by Maxwell J. Roberts and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2014-06-03 with total page 292 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the investigation of human behaviour, statistical techniques are employed widely in the social sciences. Whilst introductory statistics courses cover essential techniques, the complexities of behaviour demand that more flexible and comprehensive methods are also employed. Analysis of Variance (ANOVA) has become one of the most common of these and it is therefore essential for both student and researcher to have a thorough understanding of it. A Student's Guide to Analysis of Variance covers a range of statistical techniques associated with ANOVA, including single and multiple factor designs, various follow-up procedures such as post-hoc tests, and how to make sense of interactions. Suggestions on the best use of techniques and advice on how to avoid the pitfalls are included, along with guidelines on the writing of formal reports. Introductory level topics such as standard deviation, standard error and t-tests are revised, making this book an invaluable aid to all students for whom ANOVA is a compulsory topic. It will also serve as a useful refresher for the more advanced student and practising researcher.

Download or read book Levine s Guide to SPSS for Analysis of Variance written by Sanford L. Braver and published by Psychology Press. This book was released on 2003-06-20 with total page 333 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A greatly expanded and heavily revised second edition, this popular guide provides instructions and clear examples for running analyses of variance (ANOVA) and several other related statistical tests of significance with SPSS. No other guide offers the program statements required for the more advanced tests in analysis of variance. All of the programs in the book can be run using any version of SPSS, including versions 11 and 11.5. A table at the end of the preface indicates where each type of analysis (e.g., simple comparisons) can be found for each type of design (e.g., mixed two-factor design). Providing comprehensive coverage of the basic and advanced topics in ANOVA, this is the only book available that provides extensive coverage of SPSS syntax, including the commands and subcommands that tell SPSS what to do, as well as the pull-down menu point-and-click method (PAC). Detailed explanation of the syntax, including what is necessary, desired, and optional helps ensure that users can validate the analysis being performed. The book features the output of each design along with a complete explanation of the related printout. The new edition was reorganized to provide all analysis related to one design type in the same chapter. It now features expanded coverage of analysis of covariance (ANCOVA) and mixed designs, new chapters on designs with random factors, multivariate designs, syntax used in PAC, and all new examples of output with complete explanations. The new edition is accompanied by downloadable resources with all of the book's data sets, as well as exercises for each chapter. This book is ideal for readers familiar with the basic concepts of the ANOVA technique including both practicing researchers and data analysts, as well as advanced students learning analysis of variance.
Download or read book Analysis of Variance Design and Regression written by Ronald Christensen and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 1996-06-01 with total page 608 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This text presents a comprehensive treatment of basic statistical methods and their applications. It focuses on the analysis of variance and regression, but also addressing basic ideas in experimental design and count data. The book has four connecting themes: similarity of inferential procedures, balanced one-way analysis of variance, comparison of models, and checking assumptions. Most inferential procedures are based on identifying a scalar parameter of interest, estimating that parameter, obtaining the standard error of the estimate, and identifying the appropriate reference distribution. Given these items, the inferential procedures are identical for various parameters. Balanced one-way analysis of variance has a simple, intuitive interpretation in terms of comparing the sample variance of the group means with the mean of the sample variance for each group. All balanced analysis of variance problems are considered in terms of computing sample variances for various group means. Comparing different models provides a structure for examining both balanced and unbalanced analysis of variance problems and regression problems. Checking assumptions is presented as a crucial part of every statistical analysis. Examples using real data from a wide variety of fields are used to motivate theory. Christensen consistently examines residual plots and presents alternative analyses using different transformation and case deletions. Detailed examination of interactions, three factor analysis of variance, and a split-plot design with four factors are included. The numerous exercises emphasize analysis of real data. Senior undergraduate and graduate students in statistics and graduate students in other disciplines using analysis of variance, design of experiments, or regression analysis will find this book useful.

Book excerpt: The 3rd edition of A Student Guide to SPSS provides easy to follow step-by-step instructions on how to compute introductory and advanced statistics using one of the most popular statistical software programs in psychology, business, education, and other social sciences. Written in a non-intimidating, easy to read language, this guide is suitable for individuals with little to no experience using statistical software. As such, it would be of practical use to anyone who needs a simple and straightforward introduction to the most commonly used features of SPSS. This guide to SPSS was originally developed to complement the lecture component of introductory undergraduate courses in statistics. The 2nd and 3rd editions were expanded to increase the guide's suitability for more advanced undergraduate statistics courses. While most statistics textbooks teach students how to hand calculate statistics, this guide gives students the opportunity to learn how to analyze large datasets not conducive to hand calculations, providing them with the practical skills necessary for graduate school and/or a career in research. Features Learning objectives at the beginning of each chapter help students keep on track and instructors apprised of the functions that students have learned so they can create SPSS assignments for students. Concrete examples with screenshots of SPSS are used throughout to make it easier for students to learn how to compute and interpret statistics. Examples of reporting statistics in the style of the American Psychological Association (APA)- using the 7th edition of their manual- are included. New to the Third Edition Throughout the guide, elaborations on the meaning and interpretation of various statistics and demonstrations of more advanced statistical analyses have been added. The chapter on multiple regression has been expanded to include a new example that describes how to include a nominal predictor variable with more than two categories in a multiple regression analysis as well as how to interpret the results. A brief discussion of the tolerance statistic has been added to the advanced regression chapter. The chapter on one-way ANOVA has been expanded to include one-way within-groups ANOVA (in addition to one-way between-groups ANOVA). Content The 3rd edition of A Student Guide to SPSS contains 9 chapters on getting started with SPSS, descriptive statistics, correlation, simple regression, multiple regression, advanced regression (hierarchal regression, stepwise regression), the sign test, t-tests (single sample, paired samples, independent samples), and one-way ANOVA (one-way between, one-way within).
