ANOVA (Aanalysis of Variance)
ANOVA or `F’ test used to analyze the variance for judging the
significance of more than 2 means. ANOVA replace the multiple t- test
with a single ‘F’ test.
2
Variance between the groups s1
F= or F = 2
Variance within the groups s2
The calculated value of F is compared with the table value of F for the
given degree of freedom at a certain critical level. If the calculated value
of F is greater than the table value of F, it indicates that the difference
in sample means is significant. On the other hand, if the calculated
value of F is less than the table value, the difference is not significant.
ANOVA –Calculation (Alternative way)
Variance between the groups Mean sum of squares between the groups
F= =
Variance within the groups Mean sum of squares within the groups
df for within groups = Number of cases in each group minus one and added, (1st
group – 1) + (2nd group – 1) + (3rd group – 1)
Problem: Three different treatment are given to 3 groups of patients with anemia. Increase in
Hb% level was noted after one month and is given below. Find whether the difference in
improvement in 3 groups is significant or not.
Steps:
Interpretation:
Our calculated value is 6.53, which is more than table value (3.55). So it is significant
One-way ANOVA
A new antibiotic drug with three different doses (100, 200 and 300 mg/kg body
weight of rat) was tested in type I diabetic rats at BIRDEM. 20 rats randomly
assigned into groups: A, B, C and D of 5 rats each. The rats of B, C and D
group received orally 3 different doses of drug. The rats of group A, serving as
a control group, received only an inert placebo.
MSBG= SSBG/(k-1)
MSWG= SSWG/(n-k)
F= MSBG/MSWG
