    An introduction to ANOVA

    Free

    In this first chapter you will learn the basic concepts of ANOVA based on the working memory training example. The difference and benefits compared to t-tests is explained, and you will see how you can compare two or more group means by engaging in ANOVA. Furthermore, you will get a deep understanding on F-tests and the corresponding distribution.

    Post-hoc analysis

    Free

    The F-ratio you calculated in the previous chapter tells you if there is a significant effect somewhere across your groups, but it does not tell you which pairwise comparisons are significant. That is what the post-hoc tests explained in this chapter will do for you. Post-hoc tests such as Tukey’s and Bonferroni’s procedure allow for multiple comparisons without inflating the probability of a type I error.
