A human factors psychologist developed a research study to see if a certain keyboard reduces the number ofhand and finger injuries. The researcher recruited 7 staff members from the word processing pool. Each personwas randomly assigned to receive the original keyboard or the new keyboard. This was done in an attempt toeliminate order effects. Each person was asked to type 25 pages of text with an apparatus strapped to each handto determine the amount of stress placed on each finger and hand ligament. The data are given below, wherehigher values indicate higher stress and greater likelihood of finger and hand injuries. Conduct the appropriatehypothesis test to determine if the new keyboard is better than the old keyboard. Note: if the new keyboard isbetter, we would expect it to place less stress on the hands. Use α = .01.

SPSS Instructions for a One Sample t-test.
A written claim included with each stereo made by a certain electronics appliance manufacturer states that eachstereo unit is guaranteed to last 5 years without any defects. Six individuals purchased units, and all six units failbefore 5 years. The failure times in years are 3.9, 4.6, 3.8, 4.7, 4.8, and 4.1, respectively. Develop theappropriate hypothesis test to determine whether or not there is evidence to contradict the manufacturer's claim.Use α = .05.
The setup for this test is very similar to the setup we initially used to find the mean and standard deviation of a singleset of values.
1. We go to Define Variables and define one variable called “YEARS”2. WE then return to Data View and enter the values given in the problem presented above. The SPSS data table would
look like:

SPSS Instructions for Uncorrelated Samples t-test.
An industrial psychologist conducted a study to see if there is any difference between hourly-paid workers andsalary workers in terms of attendance. As a measure of attendance, the researcher used the number of absencesover a 3-month period. The data from 10 salary and 10 hourly workers are given below. Conduct theappropriate hypothesis test to determine if there are any differences between hourly and salary workers in termsof amount of sick leave taken.
Hourly 2 2 1 3 4 2 1 4 1 2Salary 2 5 2 7 2 4 1 3 4 2
The two uncorrrelated samples t-test is set up differently than the two correlated samples t-test. There are still two variablesto be defined, but their definitions are different. With a two uncorrelated samples t-test, one of the variables to be defined isthe outcome variable. In the example given above, it would be the number of absences. We would define a variable“ABSENT.” The second variable defined group membership. There are two groups: Salary and Hourly. Each membership
HHH... BBB... LLLeeeeee CCCSSSUUUNNN
serves as one level of the variable to be defined (explanatory or independent variable). The variable would be “WORKER.”Or worker type.
1. So in Variable View, we define one variable as ABSENT and the other as WORKER.2. We return to Data View and enter in the data. For ABSENT, we would put in the values as shown in the example
given above. However, for the second variable WORKER, we would use the number “1” to define Hourly and thenumber “2” for Salary. The DATA Table would look like:
3. From ANALYZE, choose “COMPARE MEANS” and then “Independent Sample T-Test.”
4. When this is chosen, the following window appears:
HHH... BBB... LLLeeeeee CCCSSSUUUNNN
5. Move ABSENT from the left box into the box labeled “Test Variable(s).”6. Move WORKER from the left box into the box labeled “Grouping Variable.”
7. You will notice that WORKER is now in the box labeled “Grouping Variable.” However, parentheses and 2 questionmarks follow it. SPSS is asking us to define the two groups to be used. We had designated “!” for Hourly and a “2” forSalary. We need to tell SPSS this. We do this by clicking on the button just below it “Define Groups.” When we dothis we get the following window:
8. We now type in the number “1” in the Group 1 box and “2” in the Group 2 box, and then clock on the “CONTINUE”button.

SPSS Instructions for TWO-Way ANOVAA professor of physical education is conducting a study on whether the amount physical exercise and time pf day when theexercise is done affects nighttime sleep. There are 3 levels of exercise: light, moderate and heavy and two levels for time ofday: morning and evening. Eighteen college students in good health were randomly recruited and assigned to the 6treatment conditions. Each participant exercised only once and the amount of sleep obtained for that night was recorded.The data are given below:
Light Moderate HeavyMorning 6.5 7.3 7.2 7.3 7.6 6.8 7.6 6.6 7.2Evening 7.1 7.9 8.2 7.4 8.1 8.2 8.2 8.5 9.3 To do this problem in SPSS, we need to define 3 variables. There are two independent variables: AMOUNT and TIME.There is one dependent variable: HOURS of sleep.
1. In Variable View, define three variables: HOURS, AMOUNT and TIME. Then return to Data View and enter in thedata values. For AMOUNT use “1” for light, “2” for moderate and “ 3” for heavy. For TIME, use “1” for morningand “2” for evening. The SPSS data table would look like:

SPSS Instructions for a One-Way Repeated Measures ANOVA The one-way repeated measures ANOVA is an extension of the correlated samples t-test. With the correlated t-test, there were two groups that are correlated in that the same participant was measured twice on the same or similar variable. The participant was essentially matched or paired with oneself. With the one-way repeated measures ANOVA, each participant is measured more than twice on the same or similar dependent variable or outcome measure. For example, 9 participants were measured over a 5-week period on the number of migraine headaches. The first two weeks were used develop a baseline measure followed by 3 weeks of self-therapy. The design of a study involving measurement of each participant on the same dependent variable over 5 occasions is given as:

HHH... BBB... LLLeeeeee CCCSSSUUUNNN
In a mixed 2-way ANOVA, one of the IVs creates uncorrelated groups and the second creates correlated groups. For example, if a researcher wanted to study sex differences on a verbal task, this variable “sex” would create uncorrelated groups. If the researcher measured the participants before and after some kind of intervention (new teaching method) in on a verbal test, the testing sessions would result in correlated groups. Hence the design would look like:
Sex Before Treatment After Treatment Women S1 S2 S3 S4 S5 S1 S2 S3 S4 S5 Men S6 S7 S8 S9 S10 S6 S7 S8 S9 S10
Note that there are five different women (S1 S2 S3 S4 S5) and five different men (S6 S7 S8 S9 S10) measured before treatment and then again after treatment. Women and men or Sex constitutes the uncorrelated grouping while before treatment and after treatment or just Time makes up the correlated grouping. Using actual data values, the table looks like:
Sex Before Treatment After Treatment Women 15, 10, 8, 11, 9 16, 14, 6, 12, 10 Men 4, 8, 16, 12, 10 6, 9, 15, 13, 11
In SPSS, three variables are created: SEX, BEFORE and AFTER. The appropriate data values are added into the SPSS Data Table. This is what it would look like:
Click on “ANALYZE” at the top menu bar. From ANALYZE, choose “General Lineal Model.” From the submenu choose “Repeated Measures.”
HHH... BBB... LLLeeeeee CCCSSSUUUNNN
When clicking on “Repeated Measures, a window will appear:
Replace “factor1” in the Within Subject Factor Name box with a more appropriate one for the analysis. For this
particular study it would be “TIME.” In the Number of Levels box put in the number “2”. This says there are two time periods (Before – After). If a research had 3 time periods or trials, then the number “3” would be entered in the box.
After putting the number “2” in the box, click on the button “ADD.” Follow this with a click on the button “Define.” When this is done another window will appear on the screen. On the left box the name of the three variables will appear. The task now is to move the appropriate variables into the correct boxes on the right side.
HHH... BBB... LLLeeeeee CCCSSSUUUNNN
Select “before” and “after” and move them into the first box. The _?_[1} and _?_[2} will be replaced by before[1] and after[2]. Select and move “sex” from the left box into the box labeled Between Subjects Factor(s).
HHH... BBB... LLLeeeeee CCCSSSUUUNNN
If post hoc tests are needed, they can be obtained from clicking the “post hoc” button. To obtain descriptive statistics, click on the “Options” button. It will bring a screen that looks like:
Select “Descriptive Statistics” and any other pertinent measure such as “Estimates of Effect Size.” Move “OVERALL” from the left box to the right box. Then click on “Continue.” This will return you back to the previous window. To do the analyses, click on the “OK” button. The needed information will be found in different places in the output. SPSS generates a lot of output. Only the pertinent ones were extracted and presented in this document. The first gives the non-conservative and conservative tests for the within subjects factor (correlated groups), TIME and the interaction between TIME and SEX. The second hives the analysis for the between subjects factor (uncorrelated groups): SEX.
