Suppose that a one-way ANOVA is being performed to compare the means of three populations and that the sample sizes are and Determine the degrees of freedom for the statistic.
In this problem, consider an F-curve with .
Identify the degrees of freedom for the denominator.
How many degrees of freedom does an -curve have? What are those degrees of freedom called?
many species of cuckoos are brood parasites. The females lay their eggs in the nests if similar bird species that then raise the young cuckoos at the expense of their own young. The question might be asked, "Do the cuckoos lay the same size eggs regardless of the size of the bird whose nest they use"? Data on the lengths, in millimeters of cuckoo eggs found in the nests of six bird species- Meadow Pipit, Tree pipit, Hedge Sparrow, Robin, Pied Wagtail and wren are provided on the WeissStats site. These data are collected by the late O. Latter in \(1902\) and used by L. Tippett in his text The Methods of Statistics.
a. Obtain individual normal probability plots and the standard deviations of the sample.
b. Perform a residual analysis
c. use your results from part (a) and (b) to decide whether conducting a one-way ANOVA test on the data is reasonable. If so, also do parts (d) and (e).
d. use a one-way ANOVA test to decide, at the\(5%\) significance level whether, the data provide sufficient evidence to conclude that a difference exists among the means of the populations from which the samples were taken.
e. Interpret your results from part (d).

Weight Loss and BMI. In the paper "Voluntary Weight Reduction in Older Men Increases Hip Bone Loss: The Osteoporotic Fractures in Men Study" (Journal of Clinical Endocrinology & Metabolism, Vol. 90, Issue 4. Pp. ), K. Ensrud et al. reported on the effect of voluntary weight reduction on hip bone loss in older men. In the study, 1342 older men participated in two physical examinations an average of years apart. After the second exam, they were categorized into three groups according to their change in weight between exams: weight loss of more than , weight gain of more than , and stable weight (between loss and gain). For purposes of the hip bone density study, other characteristics were compared, one such being body mass index (BMI). On the Weissstats site, we provide the BMI data for the three groups, based on the results obtained by the researchers.
