Predictors

|
The
Predictors box contains the predictors selected for the current analysis. Select the variables you want to include in the design
|
Method
|
Group box
|
The
Method group box contains the available options for including the selected variables as effects in the design.
- Add: Adds the main effects for the chosen Predictors to the list of Effects
- FULL CROSS: Creates the respective interaction term for all selected variables (for example, Gender*Group*Time).
Note: This button is only available if two or more variables are selected.
- FULL FACTORIAL: Create a full factorial design for the selected grouping variables (for example., Group Gender Time Group*Gender Group*Time Gender*Time Group*Gender*Time). Note that this button is only available if two or more grouping variables are selected
- FACT. TO DEG: Creates a factorial design (up to the degree specified in the Design degree field) for the selected factors (for example., Group Gender Time Group*Gender Group*Time Gender*Time). Note that this button is only available if two or more grouping variables are selected
- HEIRAR. NEST: Displays the
Nesting for Between-Group Factors dialog box; in that dialog box, specify the nested structure of the design for the selected factors.
Note: This button is only available if one or more factors are selected. Only the nested factor(s) should be selected in the
Predictors field.
- DESIGN DEGREE: Use the
Design degree field in conjunction with the
Fact. to deg. option

Effects
|
Group box
|
This group box shows the effects currently in the design. These effects can further be edited via the following options:
- CROSS: Cross two effects currently selected in the Effects group box; (for example, if two effects A and B(C) are currently selected, then Cross will add the term A*B(C) to the effects in the design. If more or fewer than two effects are selected, this button is not available
- NEST: Nest two effects currently selected in the Effects group box (for example, if two effects A and B are currently selected), then Nest will add the term B(A) (factor B is nested in factor A) to the effects in the model. If more or fewer than two effects are selected, this button is not available
- REMOVE: Removes the selected effects from the
Effects group box
- CLEAR ALL: Removes or clears all effects from the
Effects group box
