Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Dividing the sum of squares (SS) by the degrees of freedom (df) results in the mean square. The F ratio is obtained by dividing the between-groups variability by the within-groups variability. Alpha error is a measure of the probability of rejecting the null hypothesis when it is actually true. ANOVA is a statistical test used to compare the means of three or more groups.
