t-test ANOVA (analysis of variance) Correlation
Regression
2t-test Assesses the difference between two
means Is the mean for group one statistically
different than the mean for group two?
3ANOVA (analysis of variance) One-way ANOVA is
used to test for significant differences among
two or more independent groups. Factorial ANOVA
is used when the experimenter wants to study the
effects of two or more treatment variables on two
or more groups.
4Correlation Assesses if as one variable
increases or decreases then another variable
