We typically see this pattern with larger sample sizes. Although the effects are highly statistically significant, the effect sizes are moderate.

Note that you couldn't possibly conclude this from their p-values (p = 0.003 for employment and p = 0.018 for health). 095) is twice as strong as health ( η 2 = 0.048). Resultįirst off, both main effects (employment and health) and the interaction between them are statistically significant. UNIANOVA happy BY employed healthy /METHOD=SSTYPE(3) /INTERCEPT=INCLUDE /PRINT=ETASQ /CRITERIA=ALPHA(.05) /DESIGN=employed healthy employed*healthy. Pasted from Analyze - General Linear Model - Univariate. Since it's way longer than necessary, I prefer just typing a short version that yields identical results. We'll therefore use MEANS instead as shown below.Ĭlicking Paste results in the syntax below. SPSS offers several options for running a one-way ANOVA and many students start off withīut -oddly- η 2 is completely absent from this dialog. We're especially interested in the effect of employment on happiness: (how) are they associated and does the association depend on health or marital status too? Let's first just examine employment with a one-way ANOVA. The data thus collected are in happy.sav, part of which is shown below. Some other questions were employment status, marital status and health. Example: Happiness StudyĪ scientist asked 120 people to rate their own happiness on a 100 point scale. Let's now go and get (partial) η 2 from SPSS. Partial η 2 a proportion of variance accounted for by some effect. One that's often used is (partial) eta squared, denoted as η 2 (η is the Greek letter eta). Well, there's several measures of effect size that tell us just that. So how can we quantify how strong effects are for comparing them within or across analyses? We can't conclude that p = 0.05 indicates a stronger effect than p = 0.10 because both are affected by sample sizes and other factors. However, some effect just being not zero isn't too interesting, is it? What we really want to know is: A zero effect means that all means are exactly equal for some factor such as gender or experimental group. Now, p (“Sig.” in SPSS) tells us the likelihood of some effect being zero in our population. We report these 3 numbers for each effect -possibly just one for one-way ANOVA.
