Since Exam 2…
• We’ve covered three major topics
– ANOVA
– Regression
– Chi-square (covered this week in lectures)
• Do you know when it is appropriate to use
each?
ANOVA
• Extension of pooled 2-independent
samples t-test
• Do you know how to find an estimate of
the common population variance?
• Do you know when it is appropriate to use
Tukey’s Multiple Comparisons procedure,
and how to interpret this output?
Regression
• Used to find linear relationship between
two quantitative variables
• Do you know how to test if there is a
significant linear relationship?
• Do you know what the assumptions for
this test are, and how to check them?
Suppose we want to explore the relationship
between Exam 1 scores and Exam 2 scores.
Which procedure would be appropriate?
A) ANOVA
B) Regression
C) Chi-square test of independence
A statistics instructor produces this scatterplot and
regression line to see if her students' exam scores can
be predicted from their scores on a standard test of
mathematical ability.
What do the numbers on the vertical axis represent?
A) Statistics exam scores
B) The number of people
earning each exam
score
C) Mathematics ability
scores
The correlation between height and weight for a
certain breed of plant is found to be 0.8.
What proportion of the variability in plant weight
is NOT explained by height?
A)
B)
C)
D)
1-0.8 = 0.2
(0.8)2 = 0.64
1-(0.8) 2 = 0.36
(1-0.8) 2 = 0.04
Suppose we want to compare the average
Exam 2 scores for each of the 4 academic
classes (e.g. Freshman, Sophomore).
Which procedure would be appropriate?
ANOVA
Regression
Chi-square test of independence
Using the ANOVA table, what is an estimate of
the common population variance?
ANOVA
