justknimeit-29 - Comparing Distributions between Groups
Challenge 29: Comparing Distributions between GroupsLevel: EasyDescription: Imagine that you want to compare student test scores to find out whether there are anydifferences between the students' performances in 2020 (group 1) compared to 2019 (group 0). Forexample, you might want to find out whether there is an unusually high number of very good scorescompared to the other year, which could be a sign of cheating. Each student participated in the samethree tests and received three test scores (Score 1, Score 2, and Score 3). How similar are thedistributions of the three scores between the two groups? Which score distribution differs the most?The output should contain a visualization of the conditional distributions and a statistical test for theequality of mean and variance between the groups.Hint: Check out the verified components for visualization on the KNIME Hub. Component - viewer to compare scoresbetween groups Expanded workflow Findings:1) Score 1 has a bimodal distribution. Nonetheless, the means between the two groups(years) are significantly different, even though the variances are found to be not significantlydifferent between the two groups.2) Score 2 has a Gaussian-like distribution. However the means and variances aresignificantly different between the two groups.3) Score 3 has a bimodal distribution. However, both mean and variances do not significantlydiffer between the two groups.The equality of means was tested using independent t-test, with the assumption of equality ofvariances depending on the outcome of the Levene's test.The equality of variances was tested using Levene's test.
