Summary: | The paper has conducted a study on the variation of tensile strength for four woven fabrics made from wool type yarns depending on fiber composition, warp and weft yarns tensile strength and technological density using ANCOVA regression model.
In instances where surveyed groups may have a known history of responding to questions differently, rather than using the traditional sharing method to address those differences, analysis of covariance (ANCOVA) can be employed. ANCOVA shows the correlation between a dependent variable and the covariate independent variables and removes the variability from the dependent variable that can be accounted by the covariates.
The independent and dependent variable structures for Multiple Regression, factorial ANOVA and ANCOVA tests are similar. ANCOVA is differentiated from the other two in that it is used when the researcher wants to neutralize the effect of a continuous independent variable in the experiment.
The researcher may simply not be interested in the effect of a given independent variable when performing a study. Another situation where ANCOVA should be applied is when an independent variable has a strong correlation with the dependent variable, but does not interact with other independent variables in predicting the dependent variable’s value. ANCOVA is used to neutralize the effect of the more powerful, non-interacting variable. Without this intervention measure, the effects of interacting independent variables can be clouded |
