2. Repeated-Measures ANOVA ANOVA is a hypothesis-testing procedure that is used to evaluate mean differences between two or more treatments. Repeated-measures designs are used commonly to examine development (over time), to chart the course of learning (at different levels of practice), or simply to examine performance under different conditions.

3. Repeated-Measures ANOVA Independent variable: Practice Practice Session 1 Practice Session 2 Practice Session 3 Number of errors made Rats are tested in the maze in one daily session for three days

4. Repeated-Measures ANOVA Statistical Hypothesis for ANOVA: At least one treatment mean is different from others

7. Logic of Repeated-Measures ANOVA SS total SS between SS within= SS between subjects + SS error df total N-1 df between k-1 df within N-k df between subjects n-1 df error (N-k)-(n-1)

8. Example A school psychologist would like to test the effectiveness of behavior-modification technique in controlling classroom outbursts of unruly children. A teacher is instructed to use the response-cost technique. Every time a child disrupts the class, he or she is told that the behavior has cost him or her 10 minutes of free time. That is, the free-time period is shortened for each unruly act. For a sample of n=4 children, the number of outburst is measured for a day before treatment is initiated and again one week, one month, and six months after the response-cost technique began (Note that the measurements taken after the response-cost technique is administered serve as a long term follow-up on the effectiveness of the treatment).

11. Post hoc tests In ANOVA, when you reject the null hypothesis, you conclude that the means are not all the same. Post hoc test are done after ANOVA when 1. You reject the null hypothesis AND, 2. There are 3 or more treatments

12. Post hoc tests Method: Tukey’s Honestly Significant (HSD) Test The value of q is found in Table B.5 n is the number of scores in each treatment. Use df error instead of df within (Table) HSD allows you to compute a single value that determines the minimum difference between treatment means that is necessary for significance.

13. Advantage & Disadvantage If there is large variability due to individual differences, treatment effect might be masked by this variability. Repeated measures ANOVA eliminates this drawback. Carry-over effects & Progressive errors…

14. Assumptions 1. The observations within each sample must be independent. 2. The population distribution within each treatment must be normal. 3. The variances of the population distributions for each treatment should be equivalent.

15. Example The following data were obtained to compare three experimental treatments. a. If these data were obtained from an independent measures design, then could you conclude that there is a significant difference among the treatment conditions? b. If these data were obtained from an repeated measures design so that each row scores represents data from a single subject, then could you conclude that there is a significant difference among the treatment conditions?
