f statistic

I'm trying to understand the intuition behind the F-Statistic. In ISLR: F=(TSS-RSS)/p /RSS/(n-p-1) The numerator is described as the "between variation". To me it looks like the average explained variance per predictor. Why does that speak to Between Variation? The denominator looks...

Hi TalkStats :):):) I have fit two different functions (f1,f2) to some data. These functions have different forms (see below), in that they have different numbers of parameters. But the data is the same - the number of predictor/dependent variables is the same. f1 = \frac{1}{1 +...

Hi all, I'm currently using an ANOVA to analyse some data sets, recently it occurred to me that the data may not be normally distributed - at all. So I decided to 'upgrade' to using a permutation F test which is apparently much more robust in the face of not-normally distributed data. The...

Hi I have a question about comparing F statistics among effects. I have the following anova table Parameter Estimate Standard Error t Value Pr > |t| Factor1 12088.62915 2249.053598 5.37 <.0001 Factor2 -28.62915...

Hi! I am ran a linear regression test to see if one test score would predict next year's test score. I have Durbin-Watson score of 1.738. I am in the last stages of my dissertation. I had to wait a year and half for my data. So I am a little bit rusty on my stats. I wasn't sure if I had to use...
