Stats 2 Third Exam Flashcards
What does Repeated Measures ANOVA / “Within Subjects Design” do?
Test to see if responses change over time OR Test significance between multiple simultaneous responses on the same item
What is most common within subjects design?
Pre-Post Design: O X O
Pre-post statistical test sometimes called
“Dependent t test” This is inaccurate.
Called “Dependent Test of Means”
What are the issues with within subjects designs?
- Same people responding – impacts our measurements
- Individuality differences
- Start separating out error terms
What comprises a Repeated Measures ANOVA Model?
- 1 fixed categorical (dependent) IV with 2 levels that will be repeated
- 1 continuous random DV measured multiple times
What are assumptions of Repeated Measures designs?
- R - random selection (not random assignment)
- N - Normality of error term
- H - Homogeneity of variance
- D - Dependence (not independence)
What are potential methods of analysis for within subjects designs?
- Multiple dependent t tests
- Gain scores
- ANCOVA
- Univariate repeated measures
- Adjusted univariate repeated measures
- Multivariate repeated measures
Defining features of gain scores approach to analysis in within subjects design?
- Frequently used in pre-post
- Issues:
a. Reliability issues
b. Alpha issues
c. However, Observed score is true score + error
d. Assumes same reliability across measurements
Defining features of ANCOVA approach to analysis in within subjects design?
- No test of time
2. Violates assumption of independence (it’s the very thing we want to test)
Defining features of Univariate repeated measures approach to analysis in within subjects design?
Requires new assumption: Sphericity (symmetry)
What is assumption of sphericity?
- Deals with correlations among variables
2. Assumes correlation matrix will have equivalent values within it
Defining features of Adjusted univariate repeated measures approach to analysis in within subjects design?
- Adjusts for symmetry (through degrees of freedom)
2. Employs multiple tests (experimentwise alpha considerations)
Defining features of Multivariate repeated measures approach to analysis in within subjects design?
- Allows for non-symmetry
- Controls alpha
- One test
What are implications of testing the assumption of syphericity (Mauchly test)
- If meets symmetry, univariate approach
2. If does not, multivariate approach
What are three types of repeated measures?
- Time
- Response mode
- Persons unit (e.g., family)
What is a twice repeated design?
1) Pre-post-follow up.
2) Unit pre-post
In repeated measures, what are implications of unequal n?
Cannot work with unequal n. Excluded participants with missed observations.
What are defining features of repeated measures error terms?
Every factor and every interaction has its own error term.
Class example of a 2x2 fully repeated design
Child-parent, pre-post
What are defining features of a mixed model design?
- 1 fixed categorical IV (between subjects)
- 1 fixed categorical repeated IV (within subjects)
- 1 continuous random DV
