What are degrees of freedom (v1) and degrees of freedom (v2) ?
You can use the following equation to compute an f statistic: f = [ s12/σ12 ] / [ s22/σ22 ] where σ1 is the standard deviation of population 1, s1 is the standard deviation of the sample drawn from population 1, σ2 is the standard deviation of population 2, and s1 is the standard deviation of the sample drawn from population 2. The degrees of freedom (v1) refers to the degrees of freedom associated with the sample standard deviation s1 in the numerator; and the degrees of freedom (v2) refers to the degrees of freedom associated with the sample standard deviation s2 in the denominator.
