F statistic

F = MS_between / MS_within

The calculator partitions sums of squares into between- and within-group components, then evaluates the F distribution for the reported degrees of freedom.

How to use

  1. Enter each group on its own line with comma-separated values.
  2. Ensure each group contains at least two observations.
  3. Review SS, MS, degrees of freedom, F statistic, and p-value.

Example

Input: Groups = {12,14,15} / {18,17,19} / {21,20,23}

Output: F ≈ 16.5, p ≈ 0.003

FAQ & notes

Does it support post-hoc tests?

This panel focuses on the omnibus F test. Export the group summaries to apply your preferred post-hoc comparison.

Can I mix group sizes?

Yes. Unequal group sizes are supported as long as each group has at least two observations.
