One Way MANOVA

This is example 5.9 from a text by Morrison on page 240. There are 4 groups of subjects and each subject was scored on 3 scales called A B and C. The data are in a file called table5.7 in four columns. The first column is group number and the remaining 3 are the A B and C scores respectively.

SAS code to read in the data and print it out:

    data long;
    infile 'table5.7';
    input group a b c;
run;
proc print;
run;
The result is
     OBS    GROUP     A     B     C

A one way MANOVA, testing the hypothesis of no group effect is

proc glm;
    class group;
    model a b c = group;
    manova h=group ;
run;
which produces the output

The quantities labelled "Characteristic Root" are eigenvalues; only one is non-zero in this problem. The various test statistics all lead to the same F value and the conclusion that groups 1 and 2 have different multivariate means.

Now we examine univariate approaches to the data. Here we tell SAS that the variables A, B and C are repeated measurements of the same quantity.

proc glm;
    class group;
    model a b c = group;
    repeated scale;
run;
These statements actually do two analyses. The class group statement says that the numbers 1 to 4 in the column called group are levels of a categorical factor.

The model statement says that there are 3 response variables and 1 independent variable. It does multivariate analysis of variance tests for the hypotheses of no scale by group interaction (the hypothesis of parallelism) and for the hypothesis of no scale effect. It does a univariate test of no group effect by adding together the 3 scales to get a single total score for each individual.

The results are as follows:

The difference between the types of error sums of squares arises because the design is unbalanced. Notice that the hypothesis of no group by scale interaction is acceptable. Under the assumption of no such group by scale interaction the hypothesis of no group effect is tested by dividing group ms by subject(group) ms for which the value is 70.9 on 3,17 degrees of freedom. This is NOT the F value in the table above since the table above is for FIXED effects. Notice that the sums of squares in this table match those produced in the repeated measures ANOVA. This is not accidental.
