Download or read book ANOVA and ANCOVA written by Andrew Rutherford and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2011-10-25 with total page 358 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Provides an in-depth treatment of ANOVA and ANCOVA techniques from a linear model perspective ANOVA and ANCOVA: A GLM Approach provides a contemporary look at the general linear model (GLM) approach to the analysis of variance (ANOVA) of one- and two-factor psychological experiments. With its organized and comprehensive presentation, the book successfully guides readers through conventional statistical concepts and how to interpret them in GLM terms, treating the main single- and multi-factor designs as they relate to ANOVA and ANCOVA. The book begins with a brief history of the separate development of ANOVA and regression analyses, and then goes on to demonstrate how both analyses are incorporated into the understanding of GLMs. This new edition now explains specific and multiple comparisons of experimental conditions before and after the Omnibus ANOVA, and describes the estimation of effect sizes and power analyses leading to the determination of appropriate sample sizes for experiments to be conducted. Topics that have been expanded upon and added include: Discussion of optimal experimental designs Different approaches to carrying out the simple effect analyses and pairwise comparisons with a focus on related and repeated measure analyses The issue of inflated Type 1 error due to multiple hypotheses testing Worked examples of Shaffer's R test, which accommodates logical relations amongst hypotheses ANOVA and ANCOVA: A GLM Approach, Second Edition is an excellent book for courses on linear modeling at the graduate level. It is also a suitable reference for researchers and practitioners in the fields of psychology and the biomedical and social sciences.

Book Introducing Anova and Ancova

Download or read book Introducing Anova and Ancova written by Andrew Rutherford and published by SAGE. This book was released on 2000-11-14 with total page 193 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Traditional approaches to ANOVA and ANCOVA are now being replaced by a General Linear Modeling (GLM) approach. This book begins with a brief history of the separate development of ANOVA and regression analyses and demonstrates how both analysis forms are subsumed by the General Linear Model. A simple single independent factor ANOVA is analysed first in conventional terms and then again in GLM terms to illustrate the two approaches. The text then goes on to cover the main designs, both independent and related ANOVA and ANCOVA, single and multi-factor designs. The conventional statistical assumptions underlying ANOVA and ANCOVA are detailed and given expression in GLM terms. Alternatives to traditional ANCOVA are also presented when circumstances in which certain assumptions have not been met. The book also covers other important issues in the use of these approaches such as power analysis, optimal experimental designs, normality violations and robust methods, error rate and multiple comparison procedures and the role of omnibus F-tests.

Book ANOVA and ANCOVA

Download or read book ANOVA and ANCOVA written by Sharan Sharma and published by . This book was released on 2020 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ANOVA is an acronym for analysis of variance, a statistical method that is used to infer if the mean value of a continuous variable is the same in different populations defined by nominal variables. The method is so named since it partitions the total variance into components stemming from different sources. Ratios of these variance components are then used for inference about the means. ANOVA can also be viewed from a model-based perspective whereby the variable of interest is the outcome variable and the nominal population indicators are the predictors. More analytical precision is achieved when such a model includes continuous variables that may not have been possible to control experimentally. Such a procedure is called ANCOVA, an acronym for analysis of covariance.ANOVA and ANCOVA are among the foundational methods of statistics. Their flexible framework lends itself to a variety of experimental and nonexperimental settings and make it possible to simultaneously analyze multiple sources of variance. ANOVA is also commonly used to test groups of coefficients in regression analyses and summarize model fit.This entry begins with a brief historical background followed by an introduction to ANOVA using an example of a simple experimental design, a discussion of the assumptions, and extensions to more complicated designs. The model-based perspective is then introduced followed by an explanation of ANCOVA. Extensions such as the nonparametric ANOVA and multivariate ANOVA are also included.

Book Introduction to Analysis of Variance

Download or read book Introduction to Analysis of Variance written by J. Rick Turner and published by SAGE Publications. This book was released on 2001-04-13 with total page 198 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Having trouble finding a book that shows you not only how to analyze data but also how to collect the data appropriately and fully interpret the analysis, too? Here′s a new book that does all this in a particularly readable fashion. Turner and Thayer′s text: Shows how to design an experiment in the best possible way to investigate the topic of interest Explains which associated analysis will best answer your research question Demonstrates how to conduct the analysis and then fully interpret the results in the context of your research question Organized so that the reader moves from the simplest type of design to more complex ones, the authors introduce five different kinds of ANOVA techniques and explain which design/analysis is appropriate to answer specific questions. They show how to perform each analysis using only a calculator to provide the reader with a better "feel" for the analyses than simply seeing the mathematical answers on a computer print-out. The book concludes with tips for tests on ANOVA, and descriptions of how to use the knowledge gained from the text to determine the credibility of claims made and "statistics" presented in various types of reports.

Book Introduction to WinBUGS for Ecologists

Download or read book Introduction to WinBUGS for Ecologists written by Marc Kéry and published by Academic Press. This book was released on 2010-07-19 with total page 321 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Introduction to WinBUGS for Ecologists introduces applied Bayesian modeling to ecologists using the highly acclaimed, free WinBUGS software. It offers an understanding of statistical models as abstract representations of the various processes that give rise to a data set. Such an understanding is basic to the development of inference models tailored to specific sampling and ecological scenarios. The book begins by presenting the advantages of a Bayesian approach to statistics and introducing the WinBUGS software. It reviews the four most common statistical distributions: the normal, the uniform, the binomial, and the Poisson. It describes the two different kinds of analysis of variance (ANOVA): one-way and two- or multiway. It looks at the general linear model, or ANCOVA, in R and WinBUGS. It introduces generalized linear model (GLM), i.e., the extension of the normal linear model to allow error distributions other than the normal. The GLM is then extended contain additional sources of random variation to become a generalized linear mixed model (GLMM) for a Poisson example and for a binomial example. The final two chapters showcase two fairly novel and nonstandard versions of a GLMM. The first is the site-occupancy model for species distributions; the second is the binomial (or N-) mixture model for estimation and modeling of abundance. - Introduction to the essential theories of key models used by ecologists - Complete juxtaposition of classical analyses in R and Bayesian analysis of the same models in WinBUGS - Provides every detail of R and WinBUGS code required to conduct all analyses - Companion Web Appendix that contains all code contained in the book and additional material (including more code and solutions to exercises)

Download or read book Statistics written by Michael J. Crawley and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2005-05-06 with total page 348 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Computer software is an essential tool for many statistical modelling and data analysis techniques, aiding in the implementation of large data sets in order to obtain useful results. R is one of the most powerful and flexible statistical software packages available, and enables the user to apply a wide variety of statistical methods ranging from simple regression to generalized linear modelling. Statistics: An Introduction using R is a clear and concise introductory textbook to statistical analysis using this powerful and free software, and follows on from the success of the author's previous best-selling title Statistical Computing. * Features step-by-step instructions that assume no mathematics, statistics or programming background, helping the non-statistician to fully understand the methodology. * Uses a series of realistic examples, developing step-wise from the simplest cases, with the emphasis on checking the assumptions (e.g. constancy of variance and normality of errors) and the adequacy of the model chosen to fit the data. * The emphasis throughout is on estimation of effect sizes and confidence intervals, rather than on hypothesis testing. * Covers the full range of statistical techniques likely to be need to analyse the data from research projects, including elementary material like t-tests and chi-squared tests, intermediate methods like regression and analysis of variance, and more advanced techniques like generalized linear modelling. * Includes numerous worked examples and exercises within each chapter. * Accompanied by a website featuring worked examples, data sets, exercises and solutions: http://www.imperial.ac.uk/bio/research/crawley/statistics Statistics: An Introduction using R is the first text to offer such a concise introduction to a broad array of statistical methods, at a level that is elementary enough to appeal to a broad range of disciplines. It is primarily aimed at undergraduate students in medicine, engineering, economics and biology - but will also appeal to postgraduates who have not previously covered this area, or wish to switch to using R.
