ANOVA Basics
 This technique is part of the domain called “Experimental Designs”.
 This helps in establishing in a precise fashion the Cause - Effect
relation amongst variables.
 From the Statistical Inference Point of View, ANOVA is an extension
of independent t test for testing the equality of two population
means.
JV65UCK2AH
 When we have to compare more than two population means, we

use ANOVA
 Typically, the null hypothesis( H0 ) is as under:
 H0 : µ1= µ2=µ3=µ4=……=µk for testing the equality of Population
Means for k populations
ANOVA-One Way Classification
Assumptions involved in using ANOVA
 The samples drawn from different populations are

independent and random.
 The response variables of all the populations are normally

JV65UCK2AH
distributed.
 The variances of all the populations are equal.

Hypotheses of One-Way ANOVA
 H 0 : μ1  μ 2  μ 3    μ k
 All population means are equal
 H1 : Not all of the population means are equal

JV65UCK2AH
 For at least one pair, the population means are

unequal 5

ANOVA Basics
 The beauty of ANOVA is that it performs the test of
equality of more than two population means by
actually analyzing the variance.
 In simple terms, ANOVA decomposes the total
variation into components of variation. That is,
JV65UCK2AH
explaining the changes in the response variable

caused by these components.
 To put it succinctly, the total sum of squares is equal
to the sum of squares due to causes.

Partition of Total Variation(Information

Total Variation [Total Sum of Squares(TSS)]

≡ Treatment Sum of Squares(TRSS) + Error Sum of Squares(ESS)

ANOVA-One Way Classification-Example
 A supermarket is interested in knowing
whether it should go for a quarter-page, half-
page, or a full-page advertisement for a
Product.
 In order to choose the size of the
advertisement that will bring in the most store
traffic, the supermarket can use ANOVA
JV65UCK2AH
technique.
 Here, you are trying to establish a cause-effect
relationship between store traffic and the
various sizes of advertisement.

ANOVA-One Way Classification
How One-Way Classification Works in Practice?
 Total Sum of Squares ≡ Treatment Sum of Squares + Error

Sum of Squares.
 The word treatment is generic and as such may denote

different methods, machines, different advertisement copy
JV65UCK2AH
platforms, different strategies, different brands and the like.
 The variation in sum of squares of the response variable

(dependent variable) is caused only by treatment and any
thing unexplained by the treatment is attributed to error
term.

Two-way ANOVA
• The two-way ANOVA compares the mean differences between groups that have
been split on two independent variables (called factors).
• The primary purpose of a two-way ANOVA to understand if there is an

interaction between the two independent variables on the dependent variable.
JV65UCK2AH
• For example, to understand if there is a relation between age and educational

level on job experience amongst candidates, where age (25-30) and education
level (undergraduate/postgraduate) are independent variables, and job
experience is dependent variable.

Assumptions of two-way ANOVA
• Dependent variable should be measured at the continuous level.
• Two independent variables should each consist of two or more categorical,

independent groups.
JV65UCK2AH
• There should be no significant outliers.
• Dependent variable should be approximately normally distributed for each

combination of the groups of the two independent variables.
