One-Way Between-Subjects ANOVA
Thirty dieters were randomly assigned to one of three weight-loss plans. Plans one and
two were existing plans. Plan three was an experimental plan. Available are weight-loss
data after two months on the plan. These data are used to illustrate ANOVA for one
between-subjects factor.
Following the procedures for the independent samples t test example, input the
data. There will be two variables. The first is labeled GROUP, consist of the numbers 1,
2, and 3, and indicates group membership. Group = 1 indicates the first of the two
existing programs, Group = 2 indicates the second, and Group = 3 indicates the new
program. The second variable is LOSS and indicates the loss in pounds:

Using the usual process, move GROUP to the Fixed Factors slot and LOSS to the
Dependent Variable: slot. The screen will look like:

Two-way Between-Subjects ANOVA
Available are discrimination indices for 24 American cities. To study the
relationship of the index to size of city and region, a sociologist categorized the cities in
terms two factors: size of city (over or under 150000) and region (northeast, north central,
south, and west). Note that there is one score per city and the cities are the subjects.
Bothe factprs are between-subject because there are different cities in each combination
of size and region and there is not another variable on which blocking was conducted.
Following the procedures for the independent samples t test example, input the
data. There will be three variables. The first is labeled SIZE, consists of the abbreviations
S and L (for small and large), and indicates the levels of the SIZE factor. The second is
labeled REGION, consists of the abbreviations NE, NC, S, and W (for northeast, north
central, south, and west), and indicates the levels of the REGION factor. The third is
labeled INDEX and indicates the city’s score on the discrimination index.
If you display the Variable View you will find that SIZE and REGION are string
variables rather than numeric variables.
