One-way Analysis of Variance (Abbreviated one-way ANOVA) is a technique used to compare means of two or more samples (using the F distribution). This technique can be used only for numerical data. It consists of a single factor with several levels and multiple observations at each level. With this kind of layout we can calculate the mean of the observations within each level of our factor. The residuals will tell about the variation within each level. It can also average the means of each level

Multivariate analysis of variance Multivariate analysis of variance (MANOVA) is a generalized form of univariate analysis of variance (ANOVA). It is used when there are two or more dependent variables. It helps to answer : 1. do changes in the independent variable(s) have significant effects on the dependent variables; 2. what are the interactions among the dependent variables and 3. among the independent variables.[1] Where sums of squares appear in univariate analysis of variance‚ in multivariate

The depletion of the ozone layer is a major concern today. The ozone layer protects us from the harmful rays of the sun; therefore it is imperative that we preserve it. Since more pollutants are produced today than ever before (because of the major increase in the population)‚ there is a major concern that we create less pollutants to help conserve the ozone layer. In this research paper I will give vital information on how pollution affects the ozone layer and methods instituted to help the ozone

TPB uses three types of belief systems to gauge the intent to act

The Theory of Planned Behaviour (TPB)‚ which is drawn from social psychology‚ postulates that attitude‚ subjective norms and perceived behavioural controls are the main components in determining a person’s intentions to perform a behaviour‚ and conclusively impact the performances of the behaviour (Fishbein & Ajzen‚ 1975) and (Ajzen‚ 1991). It is one of the most used models in social psychology and meta-analyses have provided strong evidence for the predictive validity of the theory (Armitage & Conner
