Anxiety can often make these related conditions worse, so talk with a mental health care professional if anxiety begins to interfere on a daily basis.
In probability theory and statistics, the variance of a random variable is a measure of its statistical dispersion, indicating how far from the expected value its values typically are. The variance of a real-valued random variable is its second central moment, and it also happens to be its second cumulant.
In analysis of variance (ANOVA) terms, a moderator effect can be represented as an interaction between a major independent variable and a factor that specifies the appropriate conditions for its operation, that is, the effect of the major independent variable depends upon the value of the moderator variable.
