  3. ANOVA is a method of testing whether the means of how many populations are equal?

    • Only one
    • At most four
    • Exactly two
    • Three or more
    Reveal answer

    Answer: Three or more

    Source evidence

    PDF page 732: analysis of variance also referred to as ANOVA; a method of testing whether the means of three or more populations are equal The method is applicable if

  4. For ANOVA to apply, all populations of interest must be:

    • Normally distributed
    • Exponential
    • Uniformly distributed
    • Skewed right
    Reveal answer

    Answer: Normally distributed

    Source evidence

    PDF page 732: • all populations of interest are normally distributed,

    PDF page 732: • all populations of interest are normally distributed,

  5. For ANOVA to apply, the populations must have equal:

    • Ranges
    • Sample sizes
    • Standard deviations
    • Medians
    Reveal answer

    Answer: Standard deviations

    Source evidence

    PDF page 732: • the populations have equal standard deviations, and

    PDF page 732: • the populations have equal standard deviations,

  6. For ANOVA, samples from each population must be selected in what way?

    • In equal fixed sizes only
    • By convenience
    • Systematically every fifth
    • Randomly and independently
    Reveal answer

    Answer: Randomly and independently

    Source evidence

    PDF page 732: • samples (not necessarily of the same size) are randomly and independently selected from each population.

    PDF page 732: • samples (not necessarily of the same size) are randomly and independently selected from each population, and

  7. The test statistic for analysis of variance is the:

    • t statistic
    • chi-square
    • F ratio
    • z score
    Reveal answer

    Answer: F ratio

    Source evidence

    PDF page 732: The test statistic for analysis of variance is the F ratio.

  8. One-way ANOVA involves how many independent and dependent variables?

    • Three independent
    • Two independent, one dependent
    • One of each
    • One independent, two dependent
    Reveal answer

    Answer: One of each

    Source evidence

    PDF page 732: • there is one independent variable and one dependent variable.

  9. ANOVA is also referred to as:

    • Regression
    • Chi-square test
    • Correlation
    • Analysis of variance
    Reveal answer

    Answer: Analysis of variance

    Source evidence

  10. Variance is equal to the square of the:

    • Standard deviation
    • Median
    • Range
    • Mean
    Reveal answer

    Answer: Standard deviation

    Source evidence

    PDF page 732: variance mean of the squared deviations from the mean; the square of the standard deviation

  11. In the deviation x – x̄, the symbol x̄ represents the:

    • Sample mean
    • Variance
    • Population size
    • Data value
    Reveal answer

    Answer: Sample mean

    Source evidence

    PDF page 732: For a set of data, a deviation can be represented as x – where x is a value of the data and is the sample mean. The

  12. The sample variance divides the sum of squared deviations by:

    • Twice the sample size
    • Sample size minus 1
    • The sample size
    • Sample size plus 1
    Reveal answer

    Answer: Sample size minus 1

    Source evidence

    PDF page 732: sample variance is equal to the sum of the squares of the deviations divided by the difference of the sample size and 1.
