Introduction
Repeatedmeasuresisatermusedwhenthesameparticipantstakepartinallconditionsofanexperiment.So,for
example, you might want to test the effects of alcohol on enjoyment of a party. In this type of experiment it is
importanttocontrolforindividualdifferencesintolerancetoalcohol:somepeoplecandrinkalotofalcoholwithout
reallyfeelingtheconsequences,whereasothers,likeme,onlyhavetosniffapintoflagerandtheyfalltothefloorand

experiment:sowewouldtesteachsubjectaftertheyhadconsumedonepint,twopints,threepintsandfourpintsof

Therefore,everyparticipantprovidesascorerepresentingtheirenjoymentbeforethestudy(noalcoholconsumed),

WhatisSphericity?
Inweek1(exploringdata)wesawthattestsbasedonparametricdataassumethatdatapointsareindependent.This
isnotthecaseinarepeatedmeasuresdesignbecausedatafordifferentconditionshavecomefromthesamepeople.
This means that data from different experimental conditions will be related; because of this we have to make an
additional assumption to those of the independent ANOVAs you have so far studied. Put simply (and not entirely
accurately), we assume that the relationship between pairs of experimental conditions is similar (i.e. the level of
dependencebetweenpairsofgroupsisroughlyequal).Thisassumptionisknownastheassumptionofsphericity.(If
youwantthelesssimplebutentirelyaccurateexplanationthenseeField,2009,Chapter13).
The assumption of sphericity can be likened to the assumption of homogeneity of variance (see your handout on
exploringdata):ifyouweretotakeeachpairoftreatmentlevels,andcalculatethedifferencesbetweeneachpairof
scores,thenitisnecessarythatthesedifferenceshaveequalvariances(seeField,2009).
WhatistheEffectofViolatingtheAssumptionofSphericity?
Theeffectofviolatingsphericityisalossofpower(i.e.anincreasedprobabilityofaTypeIIerror)andateststatistic
(Fratio)thatsimplycannotbecomparedtotabulatedvaluesoftheFdistribution(formoredetailsseeField,2009).
AssessingtheSeverityofDeparturesfromSphericity
SPSS produces a test known as Mauchlys test, which tests the hypothesis that the variances of the differences
betweenconditionsareequal.
If Mauchlys test statistic is significant (i.e. has a probability value less than .05) we
concludethattherearesignificantdifferencesbetweenthevarianceofdifferences:the
conditionofsphericityhasnotbeenmet.
If,Mauchlysteststatisticisnonsignificant(i.e.p>.05)thenitisreasonabletoconclude
that the variances of differences are not significantly different (i.e. they are roughly
equal).
IfMauchlystestissignificantthenwecannottrusttheFratiosproducedbySPSS.

When all four variables have been transferred, you can select various options for the analysis. There are several
optionsthatcanbeaccessedwiththebuttonsatthebottomofthemaindialogbox.Theseoptionsaresimilartothe

PostHocTests
There is no proper facility for producing post hoc tests for repeated measures variables in SPSS (but see below)!
However,youcanusethepairedttestproceduretocompareallpairsoflevelsoftheindependentvariable,andthen
Dr.AndyField,2008
Page4
C8057(ResearchMethodsinPsychology):RepeatedMeasuresANOVAusingSPSS
applyaBonferronicorrectiontotheprobabilityatwhichyouacceptanyofthesetests.Theresultingprobabilityvalue
shouldbeusedasthecriterionforstatisticalsignificance.
A Bonferroni correction is achieved by dividing the probability value (usually .05) by the
numberoftestsconducted.
Forexample,ifwecomparedalllevelsoftheindependentvariableofthesedata,wewouldmake6comparisonsinall
and so the appropriate significance level would be .05/6 = .0083. Therefore, we would accept ttests as being
significant only if they have a p value that is less than .0083. One way to salvage what power you can from this
procedure is to compare only the pairs of groups between which you expect differences to arise (rather than
comparing all pairs of treatment levels). The fewer tests you perform, the less you have to correct the significance
level,andthemorepoweryouretain.
AdditionalOptions
The final options, that havent previously been described, can be accessed by clicking
in the main dialog
box. The options dialog box (Figure 4) has various useful options. You can ask for descriptive statistics, which will

AssessingSphericity
Earlier you were told that SPSS produces a test that looks at whether the data have violated the assumption of
sphericity.Thenextpartoftheoutputcontainsinformationaboutthistest.
Mauchlys test should be nonsignificant if we are to assume that the condition of
sphericityhasbeenmet.
Sometimes the SPSS output for Mauchlys test looks strange. In particular, when you
lookatthesignificance,allyouseeisadot.Thereisnosignificancevalue.Naturally,you
fear that SPSS has gone crazy and is going to break into your bedroom at night and
tattootheequationfortheGreenhouseGeissercorrectiononyourface.Thereasonthat
this happens is that you need at least three conditions for sphericity to be an issue.
Therefore, if you have a repeatedmeasures variable that has only two levels then
sphericity is met, the estimates computed by SPSS are 1 (perfect sphericity) and the
resultingsignificancetestcannotbecomputed(hencewhythetablehasavalueof0for
the chisquare test and degrees of freedom and a blank space for the significance). It
