(MANOVA)
PREPARED BY:
ANALYN VELCHES
Multivariate Analysis of Variance (MANOVA) is a procedure
provides regression analysis and analysis of variance for multiple
dependent variables by one or more factor variables or covariates.
ONE-WAY MANOVA
Only one dependent variable with two or more levels.
TWO-WAY MANOVA
Two independent variables each with two or
more levels.
WHY USE MANOVA?
1. Researchers are usually interested in evaluating mean
differences on several criterion variables, instead of a single
criterion variable.
2. If the researcher wants to investigate the relationships among
the variables instead of looking at each of them separately.
3. While MANOVA may provide a more useful and valid means
of analyzing data, this is not always the case. There are some
situations in which MANOVA is unnecessary.
