General steps

  1. Establish hypothesis/hypotheses
    • Make sure you have separate hypotheses for:
      • Main effect for each IV
      • Interactions between IVs
      • Planned contrasts (if warranted)
  2. Examine assumptions:
  3. IVs (categorical; between-subjects) and DV (at least interval)
    • The data in each cell is normally distributed
    • Homogeneity of variance (the variance in each cell is similar)
    • Cells are independent
  4. Examine descriptive statistics, particularly the four moments (M, SD, Skewness, Kurtosis) overall, and also for each cell
  5. Examine graphs
  6. Conduct inferential test (ANOVA) and interpret significance of F scores
  7. Conduct follow-up tests (planned contrasts or post-hoc tests) if F is significant
  8. Interpret interactions
  9. Calculate and interpret effect sizes
    • Eta-square (omnibus - equivalent to R2)
    • Standardised mean effect size (difference b/w two means)
