    I never realized you could just highlight two of the variables you want to look at an it will run them both (or I suppose more than two, even) together. It's great to see how to control for the pretest, the only reason you run this test. This really puts into perspective how one can control for the pretest effect without using the Solomon research design.

    I am thankful for the introduction to the additional assumptions required when running an ANCOVA, had not learned about those to this point.

    Dr Grande you are resourceful. You have helped me so much. I discovered you in 2015 and I am just so grateful. I am almost at the end of my PhD journey and I think you are brilliant.

    It is so much more helpful for me to understand not only ANCOVA, but other statistical measures as well, when Dr. Grande uses pre- and posttest examples. I think seeing the assumptions tested twice on the same population really drives the point home (i.e. if you're confused during the calculation for pretest, pay closer attention during posttest).

    Thank you for sharing this video Dr. Grande. I like using pretest and post test data to see if what we are testing is actually helpful to the group we are assessing.

  • @marisamaguire8136
    @marisamaguire8136 5 лет назад

    This demonstration really allowed me to obtain a better understanding of pretest and posttest analysis. It was beneficial to learn that ANCOVA controls for the pretest values, allowing us to view the posttest values to determine if there is a significant difference between the control and treatment group. I can see how the use of ANCOVA to analyze pretest and posttest data permits researchers to establish whether or not the information being tested is helpful to the groups being assessed.

    The detailed explanation of the variables helps me to gain a better understanding of why we chose to use this form of analysis. Sometimes I get confused with regard to which data analysis to select. These introductions help to provide me with appropriate clarification.

  • @jazzynovy5400
    @jazzynovy5400 9 лет назад +1

    When learning about pretests and posttests in undergrad, I still agree that a study should have both to find any differences before and after a study has been conducted. I think that even though you are trying to test if a treatment is effective, it would be beneficial to compare the posttest and pretest if the treatment has made a significant impact. This video was helpful in explaining the usefulness and how to analyze the data.

    @tamarabakergibbons5715 5 лет назад +1

    So it is important to run an ANOVA before the ANCOVA. Pretest and posttest data appears simple, but it's actually not. Once you know that you can control for covariates and other factors, the data can be useful in many other ways. Thank you for the video.

    Pretty interesting video, learning more about SPSS! Being able to use ANCOVA is conditional; certain assumptions have to be tested. I'm learning that you run the univariate tool to test those assumptions and it's nice to walk through how exactly to do that. I'm sure this will come in handy in the future if/when I'm working in the SPSS program.

  • @Mjthfdj

    This video does a great job explaining the usefulness of pretests and posttests, and demonstrates how to then analyze the data. In my opinion, it would be ideal to use pretests and posttests whenever possible, as I feel they are beneficial in determining group or treatment differences within research.

      @mandabear52289 9 лет назад

      I think that SPSS is much harder to understand via video than learning it in person. I think you would find that SPSS is really a language of its own. Once you learn it though, it becomes much more user freiendly than at first glance. Hopefully one day you will get a chance to use it in person!

  • @elaine901
    @elaine901 2 года назад

    Hi there Dr Grande. Is there a way to obtain a table of multiple comparisons when performing an ANCOVA? My independent variable has three levels (different treatments) within it, my dependant variable is treatment score after, and my covariate is treatment score before. I am wanting to look at the significance values of these treatments but am lost as I am only given a test of between subjects effects which only gives a significance value for all three treatments and so the significance of each treatment against one another is unknown. I am quite new to using this program and perhaps am using the wrong type of analysis. Any advice would be amazing! Thank you.

    Hi Dr Grande. Is there any conflict about the assumption of covariant must be unrelated to the independent variable to perform an ANCOVA?
    If not, how can we analyze the effect of A on B, free from C?
    (A = categorical (2 categories, independent) variable
    B = numerical (dependent variable)
    C = numeric (covariant variable)
    Both B and C appeared significantly different between the two groups according to t-test.)

    This would be helpful in research to see the covariance between the pre and posttests.

    Hi.. if the post test is expected to increase rather than decrease, will the pvalue be the same?

    how would you run a repeated measures crossover design?

    I understand the significance of wanting to control the pretest and comparing the two groups to the posttest only. When would you want to not control the pretest? Would this be a comparison between the pretest and posttest- would that ever be something you would want to look at?

    Can we use the same technique if we have more than 2 groups?

    Can we use multiple linear regression in this case?

    Hellou Todd your videos are really good and helpfull. But I have question about post-hoc test. How Can I conduct this post-hoc correction if I want to see exact differences within one of two group? not only main effect. Thank you very much for any response.

      Great question Matus. I would like to see a video on this if there isn't one already. Perhaps we should search You Tube videos by Dr. Grande as he is pretty thorough with regard to ensuring he has covered all of the different options.

    Dear Dr.Todd, What if the second assumption is not met?
