ANOVA One Way Repeated Measures ANOVA 1W
ANOVA One Way Repeated Measures ANOVA 1W
02 February 2023
The participants are either the same individuals tested on three or more
occasions on the same dependent variable or the same individuals tested
under three or more different conditions on the same dependent variable.
This test is also referred to as a within-subjects ANOVA or ANOVA
with repeated measures.
Study Designs
If you have a study design where you are measuring how a dependent
variable changes over time in the same participants and you want to
compare three or more time points, a one-way repeated measures ANOVA
might be appropriate.
Study Designs
If you have a study design where the same participants are being measured
on the same dependent variable, but under three or more different
conditions, a one-way repeated measures ANOVA might be appropriate. In
other words, participants are performing a cross-over design by receiving
all conditions.
Study Designs
Study Design 3. Determine if there are differences between three or more
change scores.
If you have a study design where the same participants have performed
three or more different interventions (e.g., control/intervention
1/intervention 2), the same dependent variable is measured at the
beginning and end of each intervention in all groups, and a change score
calculated (i.e., post-values minus pre-values), a one-way repeated
measures ANOVA might be appropriate.
Assumptions
1 You have a continuous dependent variable.
2 Your within-subjects factor is categorical with three or more levels.
3 There should be no significant outliers in any level of the
within-subjects factor.
4 Your dependent variable should be approximately normally distributed
for each level of the within-subjects factor.
5 Known as sphericity, the variances of the differences between all
combinations of levels of the within-subjects factor must be equal.
Example
A study tested whether cholesterol was reduced after using a certain brand
of margarine as part of a low fat, low cholesterol diet. The subjects
consumed on average 2.31g of the active ingredient, stanol easter, a day.
This data set contains information on 18 people using margarine to reduce
cholesterol over three time points.
