If the main effect of maternal diet (alchol vs non alcohol) is significant, describe the main effect of maternal diet. Include the overall means and corresponding standard deviations in your description.
Continuous Probability Distributions
Probability distributions are of two types, which are continuous probability distributions and discrete probability distributions. A continuous probability distribution contains an infinite number of values. For example, if time is infinite: you could count from 0 to a trillion seconds, billion seconds, so on indefinitely. A discrete probability distribution consists of only a countable set of possible values.
Normal Distribution
Suppose we had to design a bathroom weighing scale, how would we decide what should be the range of the weighing machine? Would we take the highest recorded human weight in history and use that as the upper limit for our weighing scale? This may not be a great idea as the sensitivity of the scale would get reduced if the range is too large. At the same time, if we keep the upper limit too low, it may not be usable for a large percentage of the population!
If the main effect of maternal diet (alchol vs non alcohol) is significant, describe the main effect of maternal diet. Include the overall means and corresponding standard deviations in your description.
Describe the main effect of maternal diet:
The overall mean and standard deviation of maternal diet are 7.9 and 5.098.
The null and alternate hypotheses are stated below:
Null hypothesis H0:
H0: Main effect of maternal diet is not significant.
Alternative hypothesis H1:
H1: Main effect of maternal diet is significant.
From the above obtained output below values are reported:
The F-test statistic is F = 40.677.
The numerator degrees of freedom is d.fNum = 1
The denominator degrees of freedom is d.fdenom = 19.
The P-value is P-value = 0.00.
