The term 'df_between' refers to the degrees of freedom associated with the variation between group means in an analysis of variance (ANOVA) framework. It quantifies how many independent pieces of information are available to estimate the population variance from the differences among group means. This concept is crucial when determining whether the variability between different groups is statistically significant compared to the variability within groups.
