Steps in Fixed Effects Model For Sample Data
- Calculate group and grand means
- Calculate k=number of groups, n=number of observations per group, N=total number of observations (k x n)
- Calculate SS-total (or total variance) as: (Each score - Grand mean)^2 then summed
- Calculate SS-treat (or treatment effect) as: (Each group mean- Grand mean)^2 then summed x n
- Calculate SS-error (or error effect) as (Each score - Its group mean)^2 then summed
- Calculate df-total: N-1, df-treat: k-1 and df-error k(n-1)
- Calculate Mean Square MS-treat: SS-treat/df-treat, then MS-error: SS-error/df-error
- Calculate obtained f value: MS-treat/MS-error
- Use F-table or probability function, to look up critical f value with a certain significance level
- Conclude as to whether treatment effect significantly affects the variable of interest

Famous quotes containing the words steps, fixed, effects, model, sample and/or data:
“Painting seems to be to the eye what dancing is to the limbs. When that has educated the frame to self-possession, to nimbleness, to grace, the steps of the dancing-master are better forgotten; so painting teaches me the splendor of color and the expression of form, and as I see many pictures and higher genius in the art, I see the boundless opulence of the pencil, the indifferency in which the artist stands free to choose out of the possible forms.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
“Our live experiences, fixed in aphorisms, stiffen into cold epigrams. Our heart’s blood, as we write it, turns to mere dull ink.”
—F.H. (Francis Herbert)
“Perspective, as its inventor remarked, is a beautiful thing. What horrors of damp huts, where human beings languish, may not become picturesque through aerial distance! What hymning of cancerous vices may we not languish over as sublimest art in the safe remoteness of a strange language and artificial phrase! Yet we keep a repugnance to rheumatism and other painful effects when presented in our personal experience.”
—George Eliot [Mary Ann (or Marian)
“If the man who paints only the tree, or flower, or other surface he sees before him were an artist, the king of artists would be the photographer. It is for the artist to do something beyond this: in portrait painting to put on canvas something more than the face the model wears for that one day; to paint the man, in short, as well as his features.”
—James Mcneill Whistler (1834–1903)
“The present war having so long cut off all communication with Great-Britain, we are not able to make a fair estimate of the state of science in that country. The spirit in which she wages war is the only sample before our eyes, and that does not seem the legitimate offspring either of science or of civilization.”
—Thomas Jefferson (1743–1826)
“This city is neither a jungle nor the moon.... In long shot: a cosmic smudge, a conglomerate of bleeding energies. Close up, it is a fairly legible printed circuit, a transistorized labyrinth of beastly tracks, a data bank for asthmatic voice-prints.”
—Susan Sontag (b. 1933)
