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

“The East is marvellously interesting for tracing our steps back. But for going forward, it is nothing. All it can hope for is to be fertilised by Europe, so that it can start on a new phase.”
—D.H. (David Herbert)
“The foot of the heavenly ladder, which we have got to mount in order to reach the higher regions, has to be fixed firmly in every-day life, so that everybody may be able to climb up it along with us. When people then find that they have got climbed up higher and higher into a marvelous, magical world, they will feel that that realm, too, belongs to their ordinary, every-day life, and is, merely, the wonderful and most glorious part thereof.”
—E.T.A.W. (Ernst Theodor Amadeus Wilhelm)
“Oh that my Pow’r to Saving were confin’d:
Why am I forc’d, like Heav’n, against my mind,
To make Examples of another Kind?
Must I at length the Sword of Justice draw?
Oh curst Effects of necessary Law!
How ill my Fear they by my Mercy scan,
Beware the Fury of a Patient Man.”
—John Dryden (1631–1700)
“When Titian was mixing brown madder,
His model was posed up a ladder.
Said Titian, “That position
Calls for coition,”
So he lept up the ladder and had her.”
—Anonymous.
“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)
“To write it, it took three months; to conceive it three minutes; to collect the data in it—all my life.”
—F. Scott Fitzgerald (1896–1940)
