K-group between-subjects MANOVA with SPSS Factorial between-subjects MANOVA with SPSS How to interpret SPSS outputs
the prevalence of obesity and asthma among youth and young adults. The target population is high school students Multiple health behaviors include drinking, smoking, exercise, eating habits, etc.
MANOVA
We focus on K-group between subjects design. Assess the effects of one independent variable (K-group)
on two or more dependent variables simultaneously. Dependent variables are correlated and share a common conceptual meaning. MANOVA uses Pillais trace, Wilkslambda, Hotellings trace, and Roys largest root criterion
phenomenon being studied. MANOVA provides some control over the overall alpha level or type I error. Multiple univariate t tests or ANOVA can inflate the operational alpha level. MANOVA considers dependent variable intercorrelations. MANOVA helps indentify dependent variables that produce the most group separation or distinction.
as dependent variables The dependent variable is computed from one or more of the others. Using baseline and posttest scores would create linear dependence.
Assumptions
Independence: the participants that compose the levels
covariance matrices.
Homogeneity of variance When the sample size is fairly equal across the group, violation of homogeneity produces minor consequences. The group sizes are approximately equal (largest/smallest 1.5). Multivariate normality Check univariate normality for each dependent variable.

Example:
Research design: four-group between-subjects design Research question: whether grade levels affect high
and 12th grade (Q3r). Two dependent variables: sedentary behaviors: Q80 (physical activity) and Q81: (How many hours watch TV). Higher score of Q80 = More days of physically active. Higher score of Q81 = More hours on watching TV.

Results
The mutivariate analysis of variance (MANOVA) was
conducted to assess grade differences on two sedentary behaviors: physical activity and hours of watching TV and. A non-significant Boxs M test (p = .12) indicates homogeneity of covariance matrices of the dependent variables across the levels of grade. The multivariate effect was significant by grade levels, F(6,31322) = 28.11, p < .01, partial 2 = .01. Univariate tests showed that there were significant differences across the grade levels on physical activity, F(3,15662) = 24.80, p < .01, partial 2 = .01, and hours of watching TV, F(3,15662) = 27.00, p < .01, partial 2 = .01 .

Results
Tamhane post hoc tests suggested 12th graders (M =
3.96, SD = 2.53) had less days of physical activity than 9th-11th graders did. However, 9th graders (M = 4.43, SD = 2.61) exercised more than 11th graders (M = 4.24, SD = 2.57). Tukey HSD tests showed 9th (M = 3.91, SD = 1.76) and 10th (M = 3.83, SD = 1.76) graders spent more hours of watching TV than 11th (M = 3.65, SD = 1.71)and 12th graders (M = 3.61, SD = 1.71)did.

dependent variables are examined simultaneously. A two-way design enables us to examine the joint effect of independent variables. Interaction effect means that the effect of one independent variable has on dependent variables is not the same for all levels of the other independent variable.

Example:
Research design: two-way between-subjects design Research question: whether grade levels and ever use
cigarettes jointly affect high school students sedentary behaviors or Whether the grade differences on sedentary behaviors are moderated by ever use.
Two independent variable: Grade with 4 levels: 9th, 10th, 11th,
and 12th grade (Q3r); ever use cigarettes (Q28) with two levels: female and male. Two dependent variable: sedentary behaviors: Q80 (physical activity), and Q81 (hours of watching TV).

Results
Similar to the results from one-way MANOVA. But we need to report Pillais trace multivariate test
result because we dont have equal variance and covariance matrices across the groups. The grade and ever use significantly affected sedentary behaviors. The relationship of grade and sedentary behaviors were moderated by ever use behavior. 9th and 10th graders who had not ever use cigarettes exercised more than other students.
