زمینه فرهنگی
In German academia, the 'Passiv' (passive voice) is the gold standard for objectivity. Using 'Anhand einer...' demonstrates a high level of 'Bildungssprache' (educational language). It reflects the German tradition of meticulous documentation and the separation of the researcher from the research.
The Power of 'Anhand'
In German, 'anhand' sounds much more sophisticated than just saying 'mit' (with). Use it whenever you want to sound like an expert.
Passive Voice is King
Avoid saying 'Ich habe kontrolliert' in your thesis. German professors prefer the passive 'wurden kontrolliert' because it sounds more objective.

What It Means
This phrase is the peak of academic German. It describes a process of scientific cleanup. Imagine you are testing if a new diet works. But age also affects weight loss. You use an ANCOVA to remove that age factor. It tells your audience you were very precise. You didn't just guess your results. You used math to filter out the noise.
How To Use It
You will mostly use this in writing. Start your sentence with Anhand einer. This means "by means of" or "using." Then name your statistical tool. The word wurden puts the sentence in the passive voice. This makes it sound objective and professional. Always place the past participle kontrolliert at the very end. It acts like a lid on a jar.
When To Use It
Use this when writing a Master's thesis. It is perfect for a PhD defense. You can use it in lab reports. Use it when presenting data to experts. It shows you understand complex research methods. It makes you sound like a serious researcher. Even if your data is messy, this phrase sounds clean.
When NOT To Use It
Never use this at a party. Do not say this while buying bread. Your friends will think you are a robot. It is far too stiff for casual talk. Avoid it in basic emails to colleagues. Unless you are both statisticians, it is overkill. Keep it strictly for formal research papers.
Cultural Background
Germans value Wissenschaftlichkeit, or scientific rigor. Precision in language is seen as precision in thought. Using specific terms like Kovariaten shows high education. It reflects a culture that respects expertise and data. In German universities, clear methodology is often more important than the result. This phrase is a badge of academic honor.
Common Variations
You can swap the method easily. Try Anhand einer Regressionsanalyse for different stats. You can also say Mithilfe einer instead of Anhand einer. Both mean roughly the same thing. If you want to be active, say Wir kontrollierten. But the passive version is much more common. It keeps the focus on the data, not you.
نکات کاربردی
