group difference

  • compare groups of participants to each other

  • way to look at a trait in multiple groups in a study


2
New cards

grouping variable


  • independent variable

  • a categorical or discrete variable used to sort, split, or classify a dataset into distinct, non-overlapping groups


3
New cards

type 1 error

  • false positive

  • show that a significance is really only coincidental


4
New cards

independent t-test

compares the means of 2 independent groups

5
New cards

independent group

the groups in a study are not related in any way

6
New cards

independent variable

  • grouping variable

  • only 2 groups possible


7
New cards

analysis of variance (ANOVA)

  • used for testing more than two groups

  • only looking at 2 groups at a time

  • still comparing means of groups

  • cannot give a direction of a hypothesis


8
New cards

post-hoc analysis

how you find which groups are statistically significant in ANOVA test

9
New cards

bonferroni correction

protects the post-hoc analysis from type 1 error
