The F distribution is a function defined over non-negative real numbers, and it takes all sorts of values over that domain. In isolation, none of the values mean anything.

An F-test, is a test based on the ratio of two variances from [approximately] normal distributions and a full interpretation requires information about the degrees of freedom. The degrees of freedom determine how much greater than 1 the value of the F-statistics can be before the result is statistically significant.

However, a value near 1, such as this will not be statistically significant.

Can the F distribution be negative?

The F distribution can't be negative.


The F-distribution is symetrical around mean zero True or False?

The F-distribution is either zero or positive, so there are no negative values for F. This feature of the F-distribution is similar to the chi-square distribution. The F-distribution is skewed to the right. Thus this probability distribution is nonsymmetrical.


Is the f distribution negatively skewed?

Is the f distribution a continuous distribution?

Yes.


Is f distribution a discrete distribution?

No, it is continuous.


What is the distribution of absolute values of a random normal variable?

It is the so-called "half-normal distribution." Specifically, let X be a standard normal variate with cumulative distribution function F(z). Then its cumulative distribution function G(z) is given by Prob(|X| < z) = Prob(-z < X < z) = Prob(X < z) - Prob(X < -z) = F(z) - F(-z). Its probability distribution function g(z), z >= 0, therefore equals g(z) = Derivative of (F(z) - F(-z)) = f(z) + f(-z) {by the Chain Rule} = 2f(z) because of the symmetry of f with respect to zero. In other words, the probability distribution function is zero for negative values (they cannot be absolute values of anything) and otherwise is exactly twice the distribution of the standard normal.


What distribution does the F distribution approach as the sample size increases?

The F distribution is used to test whether two population variances are the same. The sampled populations must follow the normal distribution. Therefore, as the sample size increases, the F distribution approaches the normal distribution.


Is the F distribution same as t distribution?

No they are not the same.


Is the F distribution a symmetric distribution?

No.It is asymmetric.


Which distribution emits a probability density function f x equals 1 over square root of 2 pi times e to the power of minus x squared divided by 2?

That's a Gaussian distribution.


How do you explain the characteristics of the F Distribution?

Characteristics of the F-distribution1. It is not symmetric. The F-distribution is skewed right. That is, it is positively skewed.2. The shape of the F-distribution depends upon the degrees of freedom in the numerator and denominator. This is similar to the distribution and Student's t-distribution, whose shape depends upon their degrees of freedom.3. The total area under the curve is 1.4. The values of F are always greater than or equal to zero. That is F distribution can not be negative.5. It is asymptotic. As the value of X increases, the F curve approaches the X axis but never touches it. This is similar to the behavior of normal probability distribution.
