An analysis of variance differs from a t test for independent means in that an analysis of variance?

Analysis of Variance (ANOVA) compares 3 or more means. The t-test would only compare 2 means.


What is a difference between a pooled variance and a combined variance?

Pooled variance is a method for estimating variance given several different samples taken in different circumstances where the mean may vary between samples but the true variance (equivalently, precision) is assumed to remain the same. A combined variance is a method for estimating variance from several samples, given the size, mean and standard deviation of each. Mathematically, a combined variance is equal to the calculated variance of the set of the data from all samples. See links.


What are t test and F test In which situation these are applied?

Both are parametric test. The t-test uses a test statistic that is related to the sample mean(s) and is used to compare that with the mean of another sample or some population. The F-test uses a test statistic that is related to the sample variance and is used to compare that with the variance of another sample or some population. Both tests require identical independently distributed random variables. This ensures that the relevant test statistics are approximately normally distributed.


Does standard deviation effect the alpha level?

Yes.For some tests, such as the Fisher F-test, the test statistic is an estimate of the variance. If the alpha level was not affected, the test would be no use at all!Yes.For some tests, such as the Fisher F-test, the test statistic is an estimate of the variance.

Is a t-test a descriptive statistic?

A t-test is a inferential statistic. Other inferential statistics are confidence interval, margin of error, and ANOVA. An inferential statistic infers something about a population. A descriptive statistic describes a population. Descriptive statistics include percentages, means, variance, and regression.
