ANALYSIS OF VARIANCE
Jennifer Kensler
ONE SAMPLE T-TEST
ONE SAMPLE T-TEST
 Used to test whether the population mean is
different from a specified value.

 Example: Is the mean amount of soda in a 20 oz.


bottle different from 20 oz?
STEP 1: FORMULATE THE HYPOTHESES
 The population mean is not equal to a specified
value.
H0: μ = μ0
Ha: μ ≠ μ0
 The population mean is greater than a specified
value.
H0: μ = μ0
Ha: μ > μ0
 The population mean is less than a specified value.
H0: μ = μ0
Ha: μ < μ0
STEP 2: CHECK THE ASSUMPTIONS
 The sample is random.

 The population from which the sample is drawn


is either normal or the sample size is large.
STEPS 3-5
 Step 3: Calculate the test statistic:

y  0
t
s/ n
n

 iy  y 2

Where s i 1
n 1

 Step 4: Calculate the p-value based on the


appropriate alternative hypothesis.

 Step 5: Write a conclusion.


IRIS EXAMPLE
 A researcher would like to know whether the
mean sepal width of a variety of irises is different
from 3.5 cm.

 The researcher randomly measures the sepal


width of 50 irises.

 Step 1: Hypotheses
H0: μ = 3.5 cm
Ha: μ ≠ 3.5 cm
JMP
 Steps 2-4:

Test Mean
Specify Hypothesized Mean: 3.5
JMP OUTPUT

 Step 5 Conclusion: The sepal width is not


significantly different from 3.5 cm.
TWO SAMPLE T-TEST
TWO SAMPLE T-TEST
 Two sample t-tests are used to determine
whether the mean of one group is equal to, larger
than or smaller than the mean of another group.

 Example: Is the mean cholesterol of people taking


drug A lower than the mean cholesterol of people
taking drug B?
STEP 1: FORMULATE THE HYPOTHESES
 The population means of the two groups are not
equal.
H0: μ1 = μ2
Ha: μ1 ≠ μ2
 The population mean of group 1 is greater than the
population mean of group 2.
H0: μ1 = μ2
Ha: μ1 > μ2
 The population mean of group 1 is less than the
population mean of group 2.
H0: μ1 = μ2
Ha: μ1 < μ2
STEP 2: CHECK THE ASSUMPTIONS
 The two samples are random and independent.

 The populations from which the samples are


drawn are either normal or the sample sizes are
large.

 The populations have the same standard


deviation.

value < 0.0001) that the mean sepal widths for
the two varieties are different.
PAIRED T-TEST
PAIRED T-TEST
 The paired t-test is used to compare the means of
two dependent samples.

 Example:
A researcher would like to determine if
background noise causes people to take longer to
complete math problems. The researcher gives 20
subjects two math tests one with complete silence
and one with background noise and records the
time each subject takes to complete each test.
STEP 1: FORMULATE THE HYPOTHESES
 The population mean difference is not equal to zero.

zero.

sample size is large.

is the standard deviations of the differences.

 Step 4: Calculate the p-value.

 Step 5: Write a conclusion.


PAIRED T-TEST EXAMPLE
 A researcher would like to determine whether a
fitness program increases flexibility. The
researcher measures the flexibility (in inches) of
12 randomly selected participants before and
after the fitness program.

 Step 1: Formulate a Hypothesis


H0: μAfter - Before = 0
Ha: μ After - Before > 0
PAIRED T-TEST EXAMPLE
 Steps 2-4:
JMP Analysis:
Create a new column of After – Before
Analyze  Distribution

Test Mean
Specify Hypothesized Mean: 0
JMP OUTPUT

Step 5 Conclusion: There is not evidence that


the fitness program increases flexibility.
ONE-WAY ANALYSIS OF
VARIANCE
ONE-WAY ANOVA
 ANOVA is used to determine whether three or
more populations have different distributions.

A B C

Medical Treatment
ANOVA STRATEGY

The first step is to use the ANOVA F test to


determine if there are any significant differences
among means.

 If the ANOVA F test shows that the means are


not all the same, then follow up tests can be
performed to see which pairs of means differ.
ONE-WAY ANOVA MODEL
yij  i   ij
Where
yij is the response of the jth trial on the ith factor level
i is the mean of the ith group
 ij ~ N (0,  2 )
i  1, , r
j  1, , ni

In other words, for each group the observed


value is the group mean plus some random
variation.
ONE-WAY ANOVA HYPOTHESIS
 Step 1: We test whether there is a difference in
the means.

H 0 : 1   2     r
H a : The i are not all equal.
STEP 2: CHECK ANOVA ASSUMPTIONS
 The samples are random and independent of each
other.
 The populations are normally distributed.

 The populations all have the same variance.

 The ANOVA F test is robust to the assumptions


of normality and equal variances.
STEP 3: ANOVA F TEST

Compare the variation within the samples to the


variation between the samples.

ANOVA EXAMPLE
 A researcher would like to determine if three
drugs provide the same relief from pain.
 60 patients are randomly assigned to a treatment
(20 people in each treatment).

 Step 1: Formulate the Hypotheses


H0: μDrug A = μDrug B = μDrug C
Ha : The μi are not all equal.
STEPS 2-4
 JMP demonstration
Analyze  Fit Y By X
Y, Response: Pain
X, Factor: Drug
EXAMPLE 1: JMP OUTPUT AND
CONCLUSION

 Step 5 Conclusion: There is strong evidence


that the drugs are not all the same.
FOLLOW-UP TEST
 The p-value of the overall F test indicates that
level of pain is not the same for patients taking
drugs A, B and C.
 We would like to know which pairs of treatments
are different.
 One method is to use Tukey’s HSD (honestly
significant differences).
TUKEY TESTS
 Tukey’s test simultaneously tests
H 0 : i  i '
H a : i  i '
for all pairs of factor levels. Tukey’s HSD
controls the overall type I error.

JMP demonstration
Oneway Analysis of Pain By Drug 
Compare Means  All Pairs, Tukey HSD
JMP OUTPUT

 The JMP output shows that drugs A and C are


significantly different.
ANALYSIS OF COVARIANCE
ANALYSIS OF COVARIANCE (ANCOVA)
 Covariates are variables that may affect the
response but cannot be controlled.
 Covariates are not of primary interest to the
researcher.
 We will look at an example with two covariates,
the model is

yij  i  covariates   ij
ANCOVA EXAMPLE
 Consider the previous example where we tested
whether the patients receiving different drugs
reported different levels of pain. Perhaps age and
gender may influence the efficacy of the drug. We
can use age and gender as covariates.

 JMP demonstration
Analyze  Fit Model
Y: Pain
Add: Drug
Age
Gender
JMP OUTPUT
CONCLUSION
 The one sample t-test allows us to test whether
the mean of a group is equal to a specified value.

 The two sample t-test and paired t-test allows us


to determine if the means of two groups are
different.

 ANOVA and ANCOVA methods allow us to


determine whether the means of several groups
are statistically different.
