| Abstract/Contents: | "A popular method to analyze the effectiveness of several levels of a treatment on turfgrass health is One-Way Analysis of Variance (One-Way ANOVA). However, ANOVA relies on the assumption of equal variance (homoskedasticity) in the response across all levels of the treatment in question. Unfortunately, this is not always justified in practice. If standard ANOVA is used to analyze data with unequal variance (heteroskedasticity), the resulting p-values can be very inaccurate, giving misleading inference and potentially leading to ill-advised policy decisions. We discuss adjustments to ANOVA to accommodate heteroscedastic data and present positives and negatives of these approaches. We implement these methods on a real data set corresponding to an experiment carried out during 2016 in Western Oregon. The experiment is a randomized complete block design which explores the use of several fungicides to control the health of putting green surfaces. It did not meet the assumptions of heterogenous variance, as several of the treatments exhibited differing levels of variability. We fit a standard ANOVA model to the data as well as other ANOVA models that adjust for heteroskedasticity. We outline similarities and differences between the model fits with respect to inference, prediction, and diagnostic checks. Lastly, we discuss how the methods to adjust ANOVA in order to accommodate heteroskedasticity can be extended to ANOVA settings with multiple factors (Two-Way ANOVA, Three-Way ANOVA, etc.)." |
