Question
ANOVA vs t-tests: Fundamentally, what can ANOVA do that t-tests can’t?
Answer
  • Work with more than 2 means
  • Cook steak fuckin’ perfectly
  • Compare means directionally

Question 2

Question
Homogeneity of variance: Levene’s and Cochran’s are different tests for this homogeneity/heterogeneity of variance. If they are found to be significant (P<0.05), this means:
Answer
  • Need to transform first
  • Data is good, go ahead

Question 3

Question
Homogeneity of variance: Levene’s and Cochran’s are different tests for this homogeneity/heterogeneity of variance. If they are found to be not significant (P>0.05), this means:
Answer
  • Need to transform data first
  • Data is good, go ahead

Question 4

Question
ANOVA is good an all that, but: Data [blank_start]___________[blank_end]; Normality [blank_start]____________[blank_end]; Variance [blank_start]____________[blank_end].
Answer
  • must be independent
