Critic Paper 2 Ecology(ANOVA)

April 16, 2009

The article was all about ANOVA(Analysis of Variance) use and misuse of mixed model, its intriguing the fact that I don’t have really an idea about this statistic method for in reality, that I had already encounter some math subjects and experimental computation on our laboratory but didn’t undergo on statistics. The article was focused about the difference between the three major effect namely the fixed, random and mixed effect, the comparison of both fixed and random effect, made myself to realization the important of difference of each party, this simply by giving its distinct comparison and explanation from the article information. This signifies that the article was consistent of its facts by filling it like a jigsaw puzzle to the reader by implying its facts at a time. To take up the overview of the whole page it consist of different reviewed article issues on Ecology and Evolution. The sum of all reviewed article was study and being dissected to find answer of the objectives of the article, this was simply by arranging and separating the reviewed article that was discuss in the Methods paragraph in the article by implying its question to find solution to the objectives that was stated. In this form each difference are treated as a group and the similarities are being combined together for further investigation. Each class is comprise every attributes of reviewed papers that categorized by the question from the method. This prove that the article was seriously planned the whole page that it was able to get so many sample of article. This allow readers to imply how crucial was the topic research is all about, and to further understanding about the difference of each account effect, the article was more focus on the basic complex problem commit in each research paper. Thus, every involvement of every reviewed paper had been accustomed by its assume to allow readers to follow the flow of the topic. The article was merely more focus on its objectives rather than going far to some curious involvement of the problem though this simple fact confuse some readers about the term used in the article but I guess the author was just sticking to its main objectives because every involvement might account to something situation. The categorical arrange of the topic was really helpful for the reader to follow the flow of the explanation of taught from the author, though at first ambiguity and familiarity of term should be considered first of what the topic is discussing because you might consider some factors of term that is used in the article like “dependent variable” though the key words are identified after the abstract was introduce, but it wouldn’t be useful if you don’t have any idea of those words so I suggest that before reading it I guess reader should have a take recap of its statistic subject, I would say a short review would be helpful to jive-in to the flow of information. The identification of the two major issue namely fixed and random effect contributed a lot to fix the mind of readers to what was the main issue is discussing all about, but to be more precise it was helpful in clarifying the rubles that was roaming around in my mind as a reader to what is the meaning and the difference of fixed and random before entering the cock pit of its primary topic. It was all well arrange from top to bottom of its discussion, the flow was merely a explanation like a tutorial in the web but not to extend that the detail was planned well for the explanation of its term and explanation specially when they are discussing its example. I know it would be so hard to find appropriate words to elaborate your idea of what you are discussing, but the author find the way to catch the reader attention by explaining those terms in a catchy way like in a very simple reasoning of idea so readers could easily understood of what the author is primarily thinking. This is one of the criteria I had been finding in the article knowing the main term of its topic by explaining its term and by introducing its background, because often article I’ve been reading was that they where presumably know that the reader had this all background of information about the article but I will rate a plus factor for the article in preserving the idea in to its simplest form of term and explanation.
