Lecture 7: One-way and two-way repeated measures ANOVA Flashcards
Diagram of Repeated measures regression model
In regression model for repeated measures ANOVA, we have - (2)
a model for each participant with the values of u tweaking the model to account for individual differences in the baseline mean and the change in mean associated with the predictor(s)
g denotes the condition and i is the participant
One-way ANOVA between groups can be linked to linear model shown below..
- We have three means and the model accounts for three levels of a categorical variable with dummy variables

Repeated-measures is a term used when the
same participants participate in all conditions of an experiment
What is the decision tree for choosing one-way repeated measures ANOVA? - (5)
Q: What sort of measurement? A: Continuous
Q:How many predictor variables? A: Two or more
Q: What type of predictor variable? A: Categorical
Q: How many levels of the categorical predictor? More than two
Q: Same or Different participants for each predictor level? A: Same
The assumption of sphericity in within-subject design ANOVA can be likened to
the assumption of homogeneity of variance in
between-group ANOVA
Sphericity is sometimes denoted as
ε or circularity
Sphericity is
a more general condition of
compound symmetry
What is compound symmetry?
true when both the variances across conditions are equal and the covariances between pairs of conditions are equal
Compound symmetry holds
true when both the variances across conditions are equal and the covariances between pairs of conditions are equal
In other words, it means..
variation within experimental conditions is fairly similar (similar to homogenity of variance in between) and that no two conditions are any more dependent than any other two
Sphereicty is a less restrictive form of
compound symmetry
What does spherecity refer to?
equality of variances of the differences between treatment levels.
Spherecity means the equality of variances of the differences between treatment levels
E.g.,if you were to take each pair of treatment levels, and calculate the differences between each pair of
scores, then it is
necessary that these differences have approximately equal variances.
you need at least … conditions for spherecity to be an issue
three
How is sphereicty assumed in this dataset?
How is spherecity calculated? - (2)
- Calculating differences between between pairs of scores for all treatment levels e.g., A-B, A-C , B-C
- Calculating variances of these differences e.g., variances of A-B, A-C, B-C
What does the data from table show in terms of assumption of spherecity (calculated by hand)? - (3)
there is some deviation from sphericity because the variance of the differences between conditions A and B (15.7) is greater than the variance of the differences
between A and C (10.3) and between B and C (10.3).
However, these data have local circularity (or local sphericity) because two of the variances of differences are identical.
The deviation from spherecity in the data does not seem too severe (all variances roughly equal) but here assess deviation is serve to warrant an action
How to assess the assumption of sphereicity in SPSS?
via Mauchly’s test
If Mauchly’s test statistic is significant (p < 0.05) then
variance of differences between conditions are significnatly different - must be vary of F-ratios produced by computer
If Mauchly’s test statistisc is non significant (p > 0.05) then it is reasonable to conclude that the
varainces of the differences between conditions are equal and does not significantly differ
Signifiance of Mauchly’s tes is dependent on
sample size
Example of signifiance of Maulchy’s test dependent on sample size - (2)
in big samples small deviations from sphericity can be
significant,
small samples large violations can be non-significant
What happens if the data violates the sphereicity assumption? - (2)
several corrections that can be applied to
produce a valid F-ratio
or
use multivariate test statistics (MANOVA)
