I 2-Sample F Test
2-Sample F Test
Menu: [Test]-[Two-Sample FTest]
Description: This command tests hypotheses concerning the ratio of the population
variance of two populations. A 2-Sample F Test uses F distribution.
Definition of Terms
σ
1
condition: population standard deviation test conditions (“ x” specifies two-
tail test, “<” specifies one-tail test where sample 1 is smaller than
sample 2, “>” specifies one-tail test where sample 1 is greater than
sample 2.)
List(1) : list where sample 1 data is located
List(2) : list where sample 2 data is located
Freq(1) : frequency of sample 1 (1 or list name)
Freq(2) : frequency of sample 2 (1 or list name)
s
x 1
: sample standard deviation of sample 1 (s
x 1
> 0)
n
1
: size of sample 1 (positive integer)
s
x 2
: sample standard deviation of sample 2 (s
x 2
> 0)
n
2
: size of sample 2 (positive integer)
