3. H o : μ = 1H a : μ > 1 where μ = mean heat conductivity transmitted per square meter of surface per degree Celsius difference on the two sides of the glass Is there evidence that the conductivity of this type of glass is greater than 1? Carry out an appropriate test.

4. Does logging significantly change the mean number of species in a plot after 8 years? Give appropriate statistical evidence to support your conclusion. Assume both populations are Normally distributed. We want to test H o : μ U = μ L OR μ U – μ L = 0 H a : μ U ≠ μ L OR μ U – μ L ≠ 0 H a : μ U ≠ μ L OR μ U – μ L ≠ 0 where μ U & μ L are the mean number of species in unlogged and logged plots, respectfully

Assume both populations are approximately Normal.Is there good evidence that red wine drinkers’ mean polyphenol levels were different from white wine drinkers’ mean polyphenol levels? Assume both populations are approximately Normal. We want to test:We want to test: H o : μ R = μ W or μ R – μ W = 0 H a : μ R ≠ μ W or μ R – μ W ≠ 0 where μ R & μ W are the mean percent change in polyphenols for men who drink red and white wine, respectfully.

6. Nothing magical about the numbers one or two... Sometimes there is a need to compare three, four, five, or more groups with each other.Sometimes there is a need to compare three, four, five, or more groups with each other. ANOVA (Analysis of Variance) is a method for doing that; tests whether there is an association between a categorical variable that identifies different groups, and a numerical variable.ANOVA (Analysis of Variance) is a method for doing that; tests whether there is an association between a categorical variable that identifies different groups, and a numerical variable. The phrase “Analysis of Variance” can be misleading; the procedure really looks at means/compares means.The phrase “Analysis of Variance” can be misleading; the procedure really looks at means/compares means.

7. ANOVA example... We may want to know which diet (Weight Watchers, Jenny Craig, Atkins, Slim-Fast, etc.), the categorical variable, is best for losing particular amounts of weight (3 pounds, 10 pounds, 25 pounds), the numerical variable.We may want to know which diet (Weight Watchers, Jenny Craig, Atkins, Slim-Fast, etc.), the categorical variable, is best for losing particular amounts of weight (3 pounds, 10 pounds, 25 pounds), the numerical variable. ANOVA accurately performs multiple comparisonsANOVA accurately performs multiple comparisons If we chose to conduct several individual comparisons (several two-sample/two-population) procedures (two- sample t procedure, confidence interval, hypothesis test), life gets very messy (more on this in a moment)If we chose to conduct several individual comparisons (several two-sample/two-population) procedures (two- sample t procedure, confidence interval, hypothesis test), life gets very messy (more on this in a moment)

8. How does anova work? Basic idea: Accurately calculates variation within a given group as well as between several groupsBasic idea: Accurately calculates variation within a given group as well as between several groups This leads to a test statistic (like a t score/value) that accurately compares several different groups without the problem of multiple comparisons.This leads to a test statistic (like a t score/value) that accurately compares several different groups without the problem of multiple comparisons. Like all procedures we have discussed, ANOVA works best if certain conditions are met; more on this later...Like all procedures we have discussed, ANOVA works best if certain conditions are met; more on this later...

9. ...popcorn & kernels popped & problems with multiple comparison... In chapter 9, we would have... Ho: mean no oil = mean medium oil Ha: mean no oil ≠ mean medium oil Ho: mean no oil = mean maximum oil Ha: mean no oil ≠ mean maximum oil Ho: mean medium oil = mean maximum oil Ha: mean medium oil ≠ mean maximum oil Three different hypothesis tests... This is called multiple comparison... Comparing multiple pairs of means

10. Remember α... Rejection zone (when conducting an hypothesis test); significance level; usually 5% (0.05)Rejection zone (when conducting an hypothesis test); significance level; usually 5% (0.05) α is also the probability of committing a type I error (rejecting the null hypothesis when it really is true) α is also the probability of committing a type I error (rejecting the null hypothesis when it really is true) Basic problem with multiple comparisons is that even though the probability of something going wrong (making an incorrect decision; committing an error) on one occasion is small (5%), if we keep repeating the experiment, eventually something will go wrong.Basic problem with multiple comparisons is that even though the probability of something going wrong (making an incorrect decision; committing an error) on one occasion is small (5%), if we keep repeating the experiment, eventually something will go wrong.

11. Big chances to make big mistakes... Essentially, by doing multiple tests, we are creating more opportunities to mistakenly reject the null hypothesis.Essentially, by doing multiple tests, we are creating more opportunities to mistakenly reject the null hypothesis. The more tests we do, the greater the probability that we will mistakenly reject the null hypothesis at least one.The more tests we do, the greater the probability that we will mistakenly reject the null hypothesis at least one. For our three hypothesis tests, each with α = 0.05, the overall significance level (or probability that we will conclude that at least one amount of oil is more effective than another, when the truth is that all amounts are equally effective is 14%.For our three hypothesis tests, each with α = 0.05, the overall significance level (or probability that we will conclude that at least one amount of oil is more effective than another, when the truth is that all amounts are equally effective is 14%.

13. So, anova to the rescue... ANOVA tests whether a categorical variable is associated with a numerical variable. This is the same as testing whether the mean value of a numerical variable is different in different groupsANOVA tests whether a categorical variable is associated with a numerical variable. This is the same as testing whether the mean value of a numerical variable is different in different groups ANOVA looks at the variation within each group and between all groups; then creates a ratio comparing these numbers called the F-statisticANOVA looks at the variation within each group and between all groups; then creates a ratio comparing these numbers called the F-statistic F =F =

18. Let’s practice a few... Does the amount of oil used affect the number of kernels popped when one is making popcorn? Researchers randomly assigned bags with 50 unpopped kernels to be popped with no oil, a medium amount of oil (1/2 tsp), or the maximum amount of oil (1 tsp). Thirty-six bags were assigned to each group. After 75 seconds, the popped kernels were counted.Does the amount of oil used affect the number of kernels popped when one is making popcorn?
