FTESTANALYSIS(ar1,ar2,alpha,newtableflag)


  • and are array of data.
  • is the significance level.
  • is the logical value.

Description

  • This function gives the analysis of variance.
  • This statistics used to determine the significant difference of three or more variables or multivariate collected from experimental

research.

  • So this analysis is depending on the hypothesis.
  • The hypotheses for this test are
  (null hypothesis, variances are equal)
  (alternative hypothesis, variances are not equal)
  • For example, the comparison of SCORES across GROUPS,where there are two groups.
  • The purpose is to determine if the mean SCORE on a test is different for the two groups tested (i.e., control and treatment groups)
  • In FTESTANALYSIS(ar1,ar2,alpha,newtableflag) where is the data of first array, is the data of second array.
  • is the significance level which ranges from 0 to 1.
  • is the logical value like TRUE or FALSE.
  • TRUE is indicating the result will display in new worksheet.Suppose we are omitted the lv value it will consider the value as FALSE.
  • The F statistic of this function calculated by:

has an F-distribution with n−1 and m−1 degrees of freedom.

  • Also is the sample variance of first set of values.
  • And is the sample variance of second set of values.
  • If the f-value from the test is higher than the f-critical value then the null hypothesis should be rejected and the variances are unequal.
  • So the following cases will occur:
  • If the variances are assumed to NOT be equal, proceed with the t-test that assumes non-equal variances.
  • If the variances are assumed to be equal, proceed with the t-test that assumes equal variances.
  • In this function the array may be any numbers, names, or references that contains numbers.
  • values are not considered if the array contains any text, logical values or empty cells.

When the or is less than 2 or the variance of the array value is zero, then this function will return the result as error.

ZOS

  • The syntax is to use this function in ZOS is
    • and are array of data.
    • is the significance level.
    • is the logical value.
  • For e.g.,FTESTANALYSIS([17,22,26,31,49],[50,47,45,13,24],0.4,true)
  • FTESTANALYSIS([24..30],[45..51],0.4,true)
