F-test
The F-test is a statistical method used to compare the variances of two or more groups, primarily in the context of regression analysis and ANOVA (Analysis of Variance). It assesses whether the means of different groups are significantly different from each other by evaluating the ratio of variances. In regression, the F-test helps determine if a more complex model with additional predictors provides a better fit to the data than a simpler model. By testing the null hypothesis that all regression coefficients are equal to zero, the F-test plays a crucial role in validating the explanatory power of the model.
The F-Test for Regression Analysis
The F-test, when used for regression analysis, lets you compare two competing regression models in their ability to “explain” the variance in the dependent variable.

The Most Important Statistical Test
The likelihood ratio test (LRT) “unifies” frequentist statistical tests. Brand-name tests like t-test, F-test, chi-squared-test, and so on are specific cases (or even approximations) of the LRT…
