Chapter 24 – ANOVA for repeated measures designs<\/h1>\n\n\n

This chapter deals with analyses using ANOVA when at least one of the factors is related \u2013 that is, a repeated measures or matched pairs factor (independent variable) has been used.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

The file repeated measures 1-way.sav (SPSS) or repeated measures 1-way.xls (Excel) contains data for a fictitious study in which new employees were assessed for efficiency in their similar jobs after one month, six months and twelve months. Calculate the one-way repeated measures results and compare with the answer given below. The repeated measures variable is contained in the columns entitled efficency1, efficiency6 and efficiency12. In SPSS use the General linear model menu item. Don\u2019t forget to check and report Mauchly\u2019s test for sphericity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The means (and standard deviations) of the efficiency scores after 1 month, 6 months and 12 months respectively were M = 38.3 (3.91), M = 41.5 (6.51) and M = 46.1 (6.92). The means differed significantly with F<\/em> (2,30) = 8.247, p<\/em> = .001, effect size (eta squared ) = .355. Mauchly\u2019s test was not significant, p<\/em> = .349.<\/p>\n<\/details>\n\n\n\n

In this exercise you can tackle a two-way mixed design where there is one repeated measures factor (efficiency<\/em><\/strong> from the last exercise) and one between groups factor. This new factor is one of training<\/em><\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Imagine the new employees in the last exercise were randomly divided into a group that received no training, one that received training and one that received training and some team building exercises early on in their employment at the company. You need the file repeated measures mixed.sav (SPSS) or repeated measures mixed.xls (Excel).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Conduct the two-way analysis for efficiency<\/em> and training<\/em> ignoring the column headed \u2018graduate\u2019 for now. Compare your results with those under \u2018Show Answer\u2019 below. Select Descriptives<\/strong> under Options<\/strong> to get the means and SDs for the efficiency<\/em> conditions. To get the means and SDs for the  training groups on each efficiency level you can create a new variable which is the mean of the three efficiency measures then use Analyze\/Compare Means\/Means<\/strong>. E<\/u>M Means<\/strong> will give means but inappropriate SD estimates.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

There was a main effect for efficiency with the means rising from M = 43.2, SD = 7.33 at one month, through M = 45.8, SD = 7.68 at six months to M = 49.06, SD = 6.09 at twelve months. F2,90<\/sub> =1<\/em>2.<\/em>454, p<\/em> < .001, effect size (partial eta<\/em>2<\/sup>) = .217<\/p>\n\n\n\n

There was a main effect for training with means of M = 41.96, SD = 3.86 for the untrained group, M = 46.313, SD = 4.48 for the trained group and M = 49.813, SD = 4.30 for the trained and team building group. F<\/em>2,45<\/sub> = 13.879, p<\/em> < .001, effect size (partial eta<\/em>2<\/sup> ) = .382.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The interaction was not significant. Sphericity was at an acceptable level (p<\/em> = .213). Levene\u2019s test for homogeneity of variance was not significant for any level of efficiency<\/em> so equality of variances was assumed.<\/p>\n<\/details>\n\n\n\n

If you\u2019re really feeling adventurous you could try the three-way mixed ANOVA that is produced by including the factor of graduate. This tells us whether the participant was a graduate or not. I have only provided brief details of results below but enough to let you see you\u2019ve performed the analysis correctly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The data set these files are based on is an experiment where participants undergo the Stroop experience. Stroop was the psychologist responsible for demonstrating the dramatic effect that occurs when people are asked to name the colour of the ink in which words are written \u2013 there is a big problem if the word whose colour you are naming is a different colour word (e.g., red written in green \u2013 an \u2018incongruent\u2019 colour word)! People take much longer to name the ink colour of a set of such words than they do to name the colours of \u2018congruent\u2019 words (colour words written in the ink colour of the word they spell).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A further refinement of the experiment, based on a theory of sub-vocal speech when reading, is the prediction that words that sound <\/em>like colour words (such as \u2018shack\u2019 or \u2018crown\u2019) should also produce some interference, if incongruent, thus lengthening times to name ink colours. The Stroop factor of this experiment then involves three conditions: naming the ink colour of congruent words; naming the ink colour of incongruent words sounding like colour words; and naming the ink colour of incongruent colour words.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In the imaginary experiment here we have introduced a second factor, which is that people perform the three Stroop tasks both alone and then in front of an audience. The data are presented as a 2 x 3 repeated measures design so there are six columns of raw data, the numbers being number of seconds to read the list of words. Control<\/em> is naming the ink colour of congruent words, rhyme<\/em> uses words sounding like incongruent colour words and colour<\/em> uses incongruent colour words. The end part of each variable refers to the audience conditions, alone<\/em> if no audience and aud<\/em> with an audience observing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Remember that in SPSS you have to name the two repeated measures factors then carefully select columns when asked to define the levels of each variable. If you enter the repeated measures variable names as first \u2018stroop\u2019, then \u2018audience\u2019 you will be asked to identify variables in the order stroop 1, audience 1, stroop 1, audience 2 and so on, so that\u2019s controlalone<\/em>, controlaud<\/em>, rhymealone<\/em> \u2026 and so on. To get the true means and SDs for the overall Stroop conditions you\u2019ll need to compute a new variable which is the mean of the two columns for each level. For control<\/em> the new variable will be (controlalone + controlaud)\/2 and so on for rhyme<\/em> and colour<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Carry out the two-way analysis, remembering to check Mauchly\u2019s sphericity statistic and to ask for descriptive statistics so you can see the mean of each level of each variable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Show answer<\/summary>\n

The main effect for Stroop is basically massive (as it nearly always is). The overall means for the three conditions were control M = 44.5 (SD = 14.54), rhyme M = 58.9 (SD = 14.82) and colour M = 97.7 (SD = 20.47). F<\/em>2,18 <\/sub>= 34.873, p<\/em> < .001, partial eta2<\/sup> = .795<\/p>\n\n\n\n

There was no effect for audience and the interaction stroop x audience was not significant. Sphericity was not a problem.<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/details>\n\n\n\n
