One-Way Analysis of Variance with SPSS
As you work through this SPSS exercise, consider the application of the one-way ANOVA test to your research topic. Is it an appropriate test for your research?
To prepare for this Application:
Review Lessons 25 and 27 in the course text Using SPSS for Windows and Macintosh: Analyzing and Understanding Data.

State the statistical assumptions of this test.
Select an independent variable with three or more levels and a dependent variable.
Develop the null hypothesis and the alternative hypothesis for main effects.
Using SPSS, calculate an ANOVA. Include a post hoc test.
Report on the p value and the confidence interval.
Interpret the confidence interval.
Decide whether to reject or retain the null hypothesis based on main effects and/or post-hoc statistical tests.
Generate syntax and output files in SPSS. You will need to copy and paste these into your Application document.
Based on your SPSS analysis, report the results using correct APA format. Include results for post hoc tests where appropriate. Your report should include the following:
SPSS syntax and output files
ANOVA table
