I have been binge watching all your stats videos as if it were a netflix serie, everything well explained and fascinating. Love this video as well,I actually found it less confusing than the one about one-way-anova. Thanks so much for this incredible dedication throughout all those years.
Hey Manny! For ANCOVA, the co-variate should be a continuous variable. For this example, maybe we record the number of years each shopper has been on the job. We could treat that second continuous independent variable as a co-variate to "control" for. In this case, since shopper is a categorical variable, the Two-way ANOVA is the proper technique.
You're a genius Brandon! I am sure you have received hundreds of good wishes from students struggling in university statistics from all over the world! Please keep making videos. Haven't seen this level of quality teaching on youtube from anyone else!
I needed the motivational message in the beginning thank you! I’ve been watching all of your statistics videos in preparation for my final. You’ve helped me so much more than my professor did this entire semester
Hi Brandon. Thank you very much. I went from knowing zip about Anova and now after only 4 vids you've managed to teach me in a clear and understandable way. You've managed to demistify stats which isn't easy. You are a great teacher. Thank you very very much. I'm looking forward to watching all of your stats vids. Please keep 'em coming :)
The pacing of this is entirely appropriate for classroom follow along. Good use of colors to tie sections of the spreadsheet together. Overall excellent presentation!
Hi! Im cliff. I like your videos. your tone is slow and very understanding, specially since stats is really a more memory knowledge based. its great to learn from your way of teaching, its is much more easier with graphics and audio. with a whole playlist on what you need to learn step by step.
These videos are so illuminating for me. My professor's explaination makes this so much more difficult then it has to be. Thank you for making this video's, they can help me to get a high grade !
ANOVA is related to regression. ANOVA is about comparing means. Regression is about how much each independent variable accounts for variation in the dependent variable(s). Regression is sometimes used to "predict" the value of the dependent variable using the relative weights of the independent variables (which ANOVA does not so). ANOVA is comparing means, just remember that.
Hi Brandon Just a quick question If the blocking variable (Shoppers) appears not to be significative (p Value > 0,05) , then shouldn’t we discard (remove) it from our analysis as we typically do in Regression analysis …After all even a non significative independent variable will explain a portion of variation and that could mislead our findings or in other words we could keep adding blocking variables to reduce error variation to a point that out treatment variable shows significance
I've watched every video in this series up to till point and you are excellent teacher. Thank you. I think I prefer more when you go through the math step by step as you have previously. I think using Excell is introducing one more complexity level that is distracting me from the essential. You are great at breaking down the scary formula so I missed that we didn't go through that. Thanks for doing this. You are doing God's work!
Very nice... I a pleased to have you. I just wished that you were my Stat teacher when I was at school.. i think I missed a lot during my school days ...but happy that I have your lectures now.
Hi Manny! There are two types of 2-way ANOVA's; 1) without replication in cells and 2) with replication in cells. This is without replication. Since there is only one measurement per cell, there is no interaction term. See my with replication video for that one. Thanks!
I am so grateful for your videos! Your explanations are extremely clear and you make it easy to understand topics that are otherwise hard to wrap your head around. Thank you very much!
Thank you!! These videos are excellent. It is obvious that you have put a lot of time into the creation of the Power Points, excel spreadsheets and the professional nature of the videos. Your videos really help in understanding the SPSS output. Excellent job!!
First off, I'm hoping you are getting some form of compensation for the time you spent in teaching and designing the content. I have used you as a reference more so than any $225 book I was ever required to purchase. I am partaking in a Master's Economics research program while also managing an airport. So needless to say I don't have any spare time. So I try to take advantage of any assistance in whatever way I can. Being able to reference your videos have not only saved me painstaking time in not having to re-read very intricate serpentine paragraphs over and over again, but has given me a visual understanding of an otherwise very abstract concept. Intuition is everything. For me statistics can't just be learned by redundant formulas. I have to have a good intuitive understanding of statistics if I want to ever be an effective economist. You have given me that intuitive understanding and for that I feel like I need to donate something to not only the time you've spent doing this, but simply as human nature. It's as easy as that. There's no philosophical innuendos behind this comment. It's strictly as simple as that. A person, ANY PERSON, who has labored in something as much as you have in putting together these videos for the greater good, should be compensated in whatever way possible. I feel I owe you at least the price of what my text book costs this semester b/c I have used you more than it. Anyway, thank you & I salute you! GOD bless
Thank you so much. Very kind of you. And thank you for taking the time to write your comment. Just ads and donations is how I survive on here. But your words and time are the most valuable thing you could ever give me. So thank you and good luck with your Masters!
@@BrandonFoltz how can I donate. Do you have venmo of PayPal I can send some thing to. I am not lying when I tell you I legit used you more than my textbook. So if you would be so kind to give me your info I want to send you something.
Hi Bradon, thank you so much for your work. I really appreciate it! I have only a tiny, not that important tip for Excel as you mentioned you do not want to drag the formulas because this would also change the color of the cell. Actually, you can drag it and than choose the option fill in without formatting via the right click. (I use a Slovak version of Excel so I am not sure about the English version of this option). I used this option a lot in my previous work , it can really save time.
Hi Bandon this concept which most of the statistics professors struggle to explain are explained in so lucid language that even a primary students can understand them. thanks I have one request please could you also explain linear model using anova specially it is executed using sas EM expalaining roles of variable and output.
Dear Brandon. Thanks for the excellent explanation. I have been watching your videos for the one week now. You way of explaining is very effective. Request you to explain chi square as well. God Bless
Hi Brandon ! Thank you very much for the videos. It is really very helpful. Also can you publish some videos on Factor and Principal Component Analysis. Is there any possibility of posting the Two Way ANOVA excel file here on youtube or a link
Thanks Brandon for the great video. I'd appreciate it if you helped me out here though. I noticed someone else had asked you the same question in the comments. I tried getting results in SPSS but it didn't work. The path: Analyze > General Linear Model > Univariate.
Thanks a lot Brandon, you are one of a Genius. Because of your clear-cut explainations stats will never look Chinese to me anymore. Do you have a video on how to test the presence of a trend ? Thank you very so much
Hey Brandon, just to make you aware the link does not appear for me. But nonetheless, you are doing a wonderful job educating me. Many thanks, Mickey, Stroke Nurse, from London.
Hi Brandon , As per Indian Mythology there is very famous saying MATHA , PITHA , GURU are DEIVAM , which means Mom , Dad and Teachers are equivalent to God. I see you in that List of Gods ... You are Awesome , I have no words to Thank you . Please sharing more videos on Algorithms like Decision Trees , Random Forest Thanks you Again :)
@Brandon Foltz any possibility of posting the excel file here on youtube or a link to it somewhere, since your blog is down this summer? your videos are helping me through an accelerated statistics course this summer so thank you!!!
Seriously man, u re a bloody genius!!!!!!! thank u so much for the videos.... finally i could understood Anova! Do u have some videos of design of experiments???
Hi, Brandon, the videos are absolutely brilliant and such a breeze to understand also 'the best' I had ever gone through. One small suggestion, please make the formulas complete in the explanation, rather than making it complete in the follow-up video of excel calculation. eg. SSC = (no of rows) x variance among column means, SSB = (no of columns) x variance among row/block means.
Awesome video. I don't know why but when I am trying to calculate SSE by hand from the table I am getting more than 475 from the first column itself. What could be going wrong?
Thanks for these videos! They are very, very helpful!! Just trying to set up this example in SPSS. Do you set up all the shoppers in 1 column, the towns in a second column, and their scores in a third column? Then do you run a general linear model: univariate. With their score as the dependent variable and the fixed factors being the shopper and the town? I am not able to get the same numbers that are shown in your video? Wonder what I am doing wrong? Thanks for any help. Ryan
SS interaction= SS total -( SS b+ SSc + SSe ) and df interaction = (# C-1)(#B-1) and MS interaction= (SS interaction /df interaction) and F ratio for interaction= MS interaction / MS error
Love your videos! Thank you SO much!! But there are several things you dont explain at all. 1) How you get the degrees of freedom for SSE to be (C-1)(B-1) ? 2) Why would SSC = SS*6? (6 being the nr of shoppers) 3) Why would SSB = SS*3? (3 being the nr of columns/groups?) There is no logic in that?
SSC is not just each column mean compared to the overall mean. It is comparing each data in the column, as its mean, to the overall mean. Therefore if there are 5 data within the column, and the column mean was 2 and the overall mean was 5, it would not just be (2-5)^2, but (2-5)^2 + (2-5)^2.....+(2-5)^2, hence 5 x (2-5)^2.
Hi Brandon, Great job on these vids. I know this is a bit of a judgement call, but since the p-value of the F-ratio for the secret shoppers is not quite significant at an alpha of 0.05, would you be justified in saying that the blocking variable didn't make a difference and proceed to evaluate the data as a standard one way ANOVA? You'd get a nonsignificant F for the cities in that case, exactly the opposite of what happens here, but it's very close...the p value is about 0.06. To me, this would indicate that more data is needed since the p-values were so close to the cutoff...if they were all something like 0.15 I'd be more inclined to go with the results of the two-way ANOVA. But in general, if the blocking variable isn't significant, as was the case here, would you then retest the data as a single factor ANOVA? Thanks!
Woodchuck1, even if the F is non significant for blocks, you would not eliminate the blocks, because then you would have more unexplained variance, i.e. a larger error variance, and this would diminish the capacity of the test to identify a true positive. Also, regardless of the numbers, from conceptual point of view it is reasonable to think that raters have an influence on results. So from the point of view of design, it would make no sense to eliminate an independent variable (a blocking variable in this case) that may explain variablility, even if the F is not significant.
Great video! im just binge watching all your playlists...Happy Labor day weekend to me!! By the way, Brandon, does the F ratio for MSB/MSE have any significance apart from giving us a look at how much error is accounted for by the blocks?
thanks for your videos, they are truly really helpful, i was wondering how should you interpret the result if both the city and shopper variance were significant?
Hi Brandon, great video, as ever. However I'm having trouble linking the calculations to the conclusion and the null hypothesis. So you've go the two F-ratios (MSC/MSE and MSB/MSE). What then? It was a little unclear what to do with these numbers. Am I right in saying that essentially you just looked at the F-ratio/P-value of the columns (cities) because this is your dependent variable (i.e. the question you're asking is 'is there a significant difference in CITIES')? I know you have a big red arrow pointing to the F-ratio for cities at 37:42, but then I was left wondering about the relevance of MSB (150). What exactly does it mean to say 'the cities have legitimate differences, even when accounting for variation in shopper scores'? Also, other than the graph at the end, how does one use the data to find exactly which city is significantly different (and how is this quantified)? Many thanks, Gary
Hi Gary! The null for ANOVA is Ho : mean1 = mean2 = mean3, etc. Ha : Not equal. The MSC/MSE ratio tests the null. If F is larger than F-crit, then Ho is rejected and equality claim cannot be supported. In this problem we are comparing the cities, while essentially controlling for (or allocating the variance) due to the shoppers. Now WHICH city(s) are different requires another level of analysis; post hoc analysis. These tests compare means as pairs. Common ones are LSD, HSD, etc. ANOVA on its own will not tell you where the difference(s) are, but looking at the means along with post hoc analysis tells you where.
Hi Man, Your videos were really helpful for me to understand these concepts from the scratch, however, I am stuck at one place. If you could help me that would be really helpful. I'm stuck at "You took a decision of rejecting the Null Hypothesis on the basis of F-Statistic of Column, could you please help me understand why you have not taken into account the F-Statistic of Block. I have this doubt because the F-Staistic of Block will give an opposite result. Reply would be really appreciated.
I'm trying to wrap my mind around the relationship between ANOVA and regression. Would regression provide additional useful info in your Starbucks example?
Thanks for this. Ready to now go and apply ANOVA to my own data with a clear conceptual understanding of what I am actually doing! P.S. I like how you pronounce Brisbane. Did you know that Melbourne was once called Batmania? If you ever decide to remake this video, I think it would benefit from referring to Melbourne as Batmania.
Great video. one question: at the end of the video you could conclude visually where is the difference by looking to the graph you made. but in real case scenario there could be ten columns with close value, how can we then find where is the difference? obviously it will not be possible to find that by simply looking to a graph with ten lines.
Could you tell me where I can download the EXCEL you mentioned in the video! Combining the viedo and EXCEL, I 'll be benefit a lot from your teaching video!THX!
What is the explanation or interpretation if variance ratio F < 1? Is there any serious violation of one of our assumptions? OR is there no need to calculate further as we may accept our hypothesis by this result?
Oh thank you! No amateur watches videos on ANOVA :) So keep your head high and keep learning! Best, B.
I really appreciate all these videos, you honestly are what I hope to be as an educator one day.
Thanks Hussein! I try to emulate all of the great teachers I have had in my life. Pay it forward. 📝
I can totally understand the effort in making the video , visuals , sound , editing and , you give it way for free . Cant thank you enough.

This guy is such a boss! Wow.
The pacing of this is entirely appropriate for classroom follow along. Good use of colors to tie sections of the spreadsheet together. Overall excellent presentation!
It is not clear to me why to find SSC we have to multiply the sum of squares times the number of shoppers. Perhaps anyone can clarify?
I cannot tell you how helpful your videos have been!

Quality content, delivered with great ease !!!
wonderfull explanation....really its amazing
Very good presentation
At last an explanation that makes sense to me. Could you please start giving my lectures in stats
i really appreciate all your videos .You are genius!thank you for making me understand the concepts.thanks for sharing all the videos.
You're absolutely incredible!! And doing such a great work! Keep on!
Hi Brandon, why do we have to multiply the sum of squares of column means by the number of blocks to get 525 in the two way anova?
Thanks for the wonderful, amzing knowledge. How do you come up with the estimated Marginal means of shopper score?
Thanks
Hi Brandon ! Thank you very much for the videos. It is really very helpful. Also can you publish some videos on Factor and Principal Component Analysis. Is there any possibility of posting the Two Way ANOVA excel file here on youtube or a link
Your videos are very helpful. It seems df for error should be N-CB and you added (C-1)(B-1) which is for interaction as per one of the text book. 7:56

Which test best is for comparing means as well as variances simultaneously??
awesome work great man
HI Brandon...thanks for all these knowledge sharing, i found best in you tube. Could you please also upload video on ANCOVA and MANOVA
Amazing videos. Thank you so much!
Please I want to know P-value which appeared when you used built-in excel ANOVA what does it mean and how it could be calculated it by hand
excellent video. helped immensely
Great content! Thanks so much!
Can we use Repeated Measured Anova here. Bcoz the same object(shopkeeper) are repeated in all groups?
do you mind doing a detailed video about regression and difference between types of regression, namely linear and multiple regression
Thank you so much! You really helped me a lot.
newbie here, can I immediately find the differences if there is only two groups? btw ty for the vid
Bravo!
Thank you for the video!!!
hi brandon, loved your well explained videos... on ANOVA. Can you please also add post hoc tests for the same?
Love your videos! Thank you SO much!!
But there are several things you dont explain at all.
1) How you get the degrees of freedom for SSE to be (C-1)(B-1) ?
2) Why would SSC = SS*6? (6 being the nr of shoppers)
3) Why would SSB = SS*3? (3 being the nr of columns/groups?)
There is no logic in that?
SSC is not just each column mean compared to the overall mean. It is comparing each data in the column, as its mean, to the overall mean.

Quantum Foam Thanks for the clarification, that makes sense!

Thank you very much for the videos. That was really helpful. Could you have a video about factorial design? That would be more appreciated.
so whats the recommended minimum sample size?
Hi Man,
Your videos were really helpful for me to understand these concepts from the scratch, however, I am stuck at one place. If you could help me that would be really helpful.
I'm stuck at "You took a decision of rejecting the Null Hypothesis on the basis of F-Statistic of Column, could you please help me understand why you have not taken into account the F-Statistic of Block. I have this doubt because the F-Staistic of Block will give an opposite result.
Reply would be really appreciated.
I'm trying to wrap my mind around the relationship between ANOVA and regression. Would regression provide additional useful info in your Starbucks example?
Thanks for this. Ready to now go and apply ANOVA to my own data with a clear conceptual understanding of what I am actually doing!
P.S. I like how you pronounce Brisbane. Did you know that Melbourne was once called Batmania? If you ever decide to remake this video, I think it would benefit from referring to Melbourne as Batmania.
Great video. one question: at the end of the video you could conclude visually where is the difference by looking to the graph you made. but in real case scenario there could be ten columns with close value, how can we then find where is the difference? obviously it will not be possible to find that by simply looking to a graph with ten lines.
Could you tell me where I can download the EXCEL you mentioned in the video! Combining the viedo and EXCEL, I 'll be benefit a lot from your teaching video!THX!
The link to the spreadsheet is inactive
hi Mr Brandon how can i know which one is the treatment and which one is the blocking factor
In Excel, you can also copy and paste just the formula, instead of entering each one manually. Just FYI
Yes, he explained that, if you copy and paste then it drags the same color over and he wanted to keep it all color coded.
What is the explanation or interpretation if variance ratio F < 1?
Is there any serious violation of one of our assumptions? OR is there no need to calculate further as we may accept our hypothesis by this result?
can anyone please tell me why is SUM OF SQUARES BOTH( shopper and city ) is not included here?
