中文版:两方差 F 检验在线计算器
原理:两方差 F 检验比较两个独立样本的方差 s₁² 与 s₂²。在「两总体方差相等」的原假设下,比值 F = s₁²/s₂² 服从 F(df₁, df₂) 分布。p 值取 F 分布双尾(2×min(左尾, 右尾)),p 小于显著性水平时认为两方差不同——这是经典的方差齐性核查手段之一。
步骤:① 输入两组独立样本;② 点击计算;③ 读出 F、两样本方差与双侧 p 值。
示例:x = (2, 4, 6, 8, 10) 的方差 s₁² = 10,y = (1, 2, 3, 4, 5) 的方差 s₂² = 2.5,F = 4、df = (4, 4)、双侧 p = 0.208,方差差异不显著。
注意事项:F 检验对正态性非常敏感——数据偏态或含离群值时,实际第一类错误率会明显偏离名义水平,此时更推荐 Levene(Brown-Forsythe)检验;两组必须独立;方差为零的样本无法计算;单侧检验(检验「方差 1 大于方差 2」)可按右尾 p = 1 − F 分布累积值处理。
相关:Levene 检验计算器是更稳健的方差齐性检验;单因素方差分析计算器用它背后的 F 分布比较三组以上均值;正态分布计算器提供数据正态性的背景参考。
