The F statistic is statistic which may be used to test whether a regression accounts for a statistically significant proportion of the observed variation in the dependent variable.

What is sampling distribution of a statistic called?

The parent probability distribution from which the statistic was calculated is referred to as f(x) and cumulative distribution function as F(x). The sampling distribution and cumulative distribution of a statistic is commonly referred to as g(y) and G(y) where Y is the random variable representing the statistic. There are numerous other notations.

What is a difference between F statistics F distribution?

An F-statistic is a measure that is calculated from a sample. It is a ratio of two lots of sums of squares of Normal variates. The sampling distribution of this ratio follows the F distribution. The F-statistic is used to test whether the variances of two samples, or a sample and population, are the same. It is also used in the analysis of variance (ANOVA) to determine what proportion of the variance can be "explained" by regression.


What does f statistic mean?

The F-statistic is a test on ratio of the sum of squares regression and the sum of squares error (divided by their degrees of freedom). If this ratio is large, then the regression dominates and the model fits well. If it is small, the regression model is poorly fitting.
