What is ANOVA?
•The test of hypothesis concerning the
equality of two population means makes use
of both the Z and t tests.
•However, if there are more than two
populations, the test for the equality of
means could be carried out by considering
two populations at a time. This would be a
very cumbersome procedure.
•One easy way out could be to use the
analysis of variance (ANOVA) technique. The

What is ANOVA?
•The basic principle underlying the technique
is that the total variation in the dependent
variable is broken into two parts—one which
can be attributed to some specific causes and
the other that may be attributed to chance.
•The one which is attributed to the specific
causes is called the variation between
samples and the one which is attributed to
chance is termed as the variation within
samples.

What is ANOVA?
•In ANOVA, the dependent variable in
question is metric (interval or ratio scale),
whereas the independent variables are
categorical (nominal scale).
•If there is one independent variable (one
factor) divided into various categories, we
have one-way or one-factor analysis of
variance.
•In the two-way or two-factor analysis of
variance, two factors each divided into the

Where,
xij = the jth observation of the ith sample
T•• = Grand total of all the data
k = Number of treatments (samples)
n = Number of observations in each sample

Factorial Design
•In factorial design, the dependent variable is
the interval or the ratio scale and there are
two or more independent variables which are
nominal scale.
•It is possible to examine the interaction
between the variables. If there are two
independent variables, each having three
cells, there would be a total of nine
interactions.
•The hypothesis to be tested would be the
SLIDE 13-15
Factorial Design
Row-wise:
H0 : Average of rows are equal.
H1 : Average of rows are not equal
Column-wise:
H0 : Average of columns are equal.
H1 : Average of columns are not equal
Interaction:
H0 : Average of all interactions between rows and columns are equal.
H1 : Average of all interactions between rows and columns are not equal
SLIDE 13-16
Factorial Design
•Total sum of squares (TSS), sum of squares due to rows (SSR) & sum of
squares due to columns (SSC) can be computed as explained earlier. We
also need to compute sum of squares due to interaction (SSI).
Factorial Design
•The ANOVA table for Latin square design could be set up as shown in the
next slide.
