This document discusses repeated measures ANOVA, which is an extension of the dependent t-test used to analyze changes over time or differences across conditions using related groups. It compares the average score at multiple time periods, unlike a regular t-test which only compares two time periods. Repeated measures ANOVA can be used to analyze changes in mean scores over three or more time points or differences in mean scores under three or more conditions using the same subjects. An example calculation of a repeated measures ANOVA is provided.

equivalent of the one-way ANOVA, but for related, not independent groups, and is the extension of the dependent t-test. Like t-test, repeated measures ANOVA gives the statistic tools to determine whether or not change has occurred over time. Repeated measures ANOVA vs T-test
• T-test compare average scores at two
different time periods.
• Repeated Measures anova compared the
average score at multiple time periods. When to use a Repeated Measures ANOVA We can analyze data using a repeated measures ANOVA for two types of study design. Studies that investigate either : 1. Changes in mean scores over three or more time points. For example: We might be investigating the effect of a 6-month exercise training programed on blood pressure and want to measure blood pressure at 3 separate time points (pre-, midway and post-exercise intervention), which would allow you to develop a time-course for any exercise effect. 2. Differences in mean scores under three or more different conditions. For example: We might get the same subjects to eat different types of cake (chocolate, caramel and lemon) and rate each one for taste, rather than having different people taste each different cake. In repeated measures ANOVA, the independent variable has categories called levels or related groups. For example: type of cake is the independent variable with chocolate, caramel, and lemon cake as the levels of the independent variable. The independent variable more commonly referred to as the within-subjects factor. Hypothesis for Repeated Measures ANOVA H0: µ1 = µ2 = µ3 = … = µk
• where µ = population mean
• k = number of related groups (HA) states that the related population means are not equal (at least one mean is different to another mean):
HA: at least two means are significantly different
Calculating a Repeated Measures ANOVA
Example : A 6-month exercise-training intervention
where six subjects had their fitness level measured on three occasions: pre-, 3 months, and post- intervention. Their data is shown below along with some initial calculations: Calculating SS-time Calculating Within-groups variation (SSw) Calculating SSsubjects Calculating SSerror Determining MStime, MSerror and the F-statistic Therefore, we can calculate the F-statistic as:
