Another question about the book - From Chapter 2

This may be silly because it's from Chapter 2, but...
Pg. 61: Where is the data for this page?
Pg. 63: Why did we change the value from 21 to 1 in this example if it was a common typographical data entry error?

**when calculating error in an ANOVA, is it represented by the within groups or between groups part of the equation?

    Hello, Gemma.

    The data for page 61 is unnecessary because it is an example.

    On page 63, I believe the value was changed by the authors to one demonstrate how to find outliers on the histograms. The "typographical error" is given as a scenario where a value of 21 might indeed be changed to 1, unintentionally. Bottom line: you can find outliers that might result from typographical errors on histograms as well as by looking at how many standard deviations away from the mean a data point is.

    When calculating error, it is the within groups or within subjects that is used. You can also find this in the slides.
