    We use variance analysis (ANOVA) to compare variance within and between groups. It is a method to test hypothesis that is in particular suitable for experimental designs. Once there are more than one independent variables we name this MANOVA.

    #18 Hypothesis Testing
    2020/12/01
    In social science we estimate the probability of the null hypothesis being wrong even though it might be true. Should we reject or accept the null hypothesis over the alternative hypothesis? This is an essential idea in inferential statistics. All slides to the entire series can be downloaded for free here: https://armintrost.de/en/professor/digital/social-research-methods/

    #16 Estimating Mean and Standard Deviation of Population
    2020/12/01
    While we know the mean and standard deviation of our sample we don’t know the real ones. That’s why we estimate. There is a reason, why using n-1 instead of N when estimating standard deviation of the population based on a sample.
