About Sum of Squares

Sum of Squares (SS) measures the total variation in a dataset. It is fundamental to variance, standard deviation, and ANOVA calculations.

Formulas:

  • SS Total: Σ(x - x̄)² or Σx² - (Σx)²/n
  • SS Between (SSB): Σnᵢ(x̄ᵢ - x̄)²
  • SS Within (SSW): ΣΣ(xᵢⱼ - x̄ᵢ)²
  • Identity: SS Total = SSB + SSW
