Statistics / Data Analysis in SPSS: MANOVA

November, 2019. Multivariate Analysis of Variance, a popular but frequently perplexing procedure in statistics, is used to test two or more groups on two or more dependent variables. Mindful of the frustration and confusion that is often experienced with this procedure, this course was carefully designed by a specialist in quantitative methods (statistics) who has successfully taught MANOVA to graduate students from a variety of different backgrounds. Several students who thought they couldn’t understand this procedure were later explaining how they not only understood it, but actually found it to be fun! Specifically, this course takes the viewer step-by-step through running and interpreting a number of different multivariate analyses of variance (MANOVA) in SPSS. Several different examples of MANOVA are covered, including: MANOVA with 2 Groups (Also Known as Hotelling’s T-Squared) MANOVA with 3 Groups Post-Hoc Tests for Problems with 3 or More Groups Two-way MANOVA Equal Covariance Matrix Assumption of MANOVA Explained Step-by-Step All tests include a detailed, step-by-step explanation of results, including how to assess the results for significance, with written results provided for each test covered.
