[docs]def effectsize_oneway(means, vars_, nobs, use_var="unequal", ddof_between=0): """ Effect size corresponding to Cohen's f = nc / nobs for oneway anova This contains adjustment for Welch and Brown-Forsythe Anova so that effect size can be used with FTestAnovaPower. Parameters ---------- means : array_like Mean of samples to be compared vars_ : float or array_like Residual (within) variance of each sample or pooled If ``vars_`` is scalar, then it is interpreted as pooled variance that is the same for all samples, ``use_var`` will be ignored. Otherwise, the variances are used depending on the ``use_var`` keyword. nobs : int or array_like Number of observations for the samples. If nobs is scalar, then it is assumed that all samples have the same number ``nobs`` of observation, i.e. a balanced sample case. Otherwise, statistics will be weighted corresponding to nobs. Only relative sizes are relevant, any proportional change to nobs does not change the effect size. use_var : {"unequal", "equal", "bf"} If ``use_var`` is "unequal", then the variances can differ across samples and the effect size for Welch anova will be computed. ddof_between : int Degrees of freedom correction for the weighted between sum of squares. The denominator is ``nobs_total - ddof_between`` This can be used to match differences across reference literature. Returns ------- f2 : float Effect size corresponding to squared Cohen's f, which is also equal to the noncentrality divided by total number of observations. Notes ----- This currently handles the following cases for oneway anova - balanced sample with homoscedastic variances - samples with different number of observations and with homoscedastic variances - samples with different number of observations and with heteroskedastic variances. This corresponds to Welch anova In the case of "unequal" and "bf" methods for unequal variances, the effect sizes do not directly correspond to the test statistic in Anova. Both have correction terms dropped or added, so the effect sizes match up with using FTestAnovaPower. If all variances are equal, then all three methods result in the same effect size. If variances are unequal, then the three methods produce small differences in effect size. Note, the effect size and power computation for BF Anova was not found in the literature. The correction terms were added so that FTestAnovaPower provides a good approximation to the power. Status: experimental We might add additional returns, if those are needed to support power and sample size applications. Examples -------- The following shows how to compute effect size and power for each of the three anova methods. The null hypothesis is that the means are equal which corresponds to a zero effect size. Under the alternative, means differ with two sample means at a distance delta from the mean. We assume the variance is the same under the null and alternative hypothesis. ``nobs`` for the samples defines the fraction of observations in the samples. ``nobs`` in the power method defines the total sample size. In simulations, the computed power for standard anova, i.e.``use_var="equal"`` overestimates the simulated power by a few percent. The equal variance assumption does not hold in this example. >>> from statsmodels.stats.oneway import effectsize_oneway >>> from statsmodels.stats.power import FTestAnovaPower >>> >>> nobs = np.array([10, 12, 13, 15]) >>> delta = 0.5 >>> means_alt = np.array([-1, 0, 0, 1]) * delta >>> vars_ = np.arange(1, len(means_alt) + 1) >>> >>> f2_alt = effectsize_oneway(means_alt, vars_, nobs, use_var="equal") >>> f2_alt 0.04581300813008131 >>> >>> kwds = {'effect_size': np.sqrt(f2_alt), 'nobs': 100, 'alpha': 0.05, ...

Notes ----- Welch's anova is correctly sized (not liberal or conservative) in smaller samples if the distribution of the samples is not very far away from the normal distribution. The test can become liberal if the data is strongly skewed. Welch's Anova can also be correctly sized for discrete distributions with finite support, like Lickert scale data. The trimmed version is robust to many non-normal distributions, it stays correctly sized in many cases, and is more powerful in some cases with skewness or heavy tails. Trimming is currently based on the integer part of ``nobs * trim_frac``. The default might change to including fractional observations as in the original articles by Yuen.
