S W 318 Lecture Notes - Lecture 10: Negative Relationship, Contingency Table, Analysis Of Variance
Document Summary
Significant relationship if alpha is greater than p. F is always positive because it includes sums of squares. Frequencies number of times something occurs in a distribution. Proportions relative frequency, dividing the frequency in each category by the total number of cases. Percentage relative frequency, dividing the frequency in each category by total number of cases and multiplying by 100. Bivariate analysis a statistical method designed to detect and describe the relationship between two variables. Cross-tabulation a technique for analyzing the relationships between two variables that have been organized in a table, also known as a contingency table or crosstab. Can be used with any level of measurement but is most often used with nominal and ordinal variables. A table that display the distribution of one variable across the categories of another variable. A variable whose categories are the columns of a bivariate table, usually the independent variable is in the columns.
