How to Create a One-Way MANOVA table

Introduction

Analysis of Variance (ANOVA) is a hypothesis testing procedure that tests whether two means are significantly different from each other. One-Way MANOVA tests the relationship between a set of numeric variables and a single categorical variable.

This article describes how to go create a One-Way MANOVA Table as shown below in which age is used as the predictor variable and attitudes towards different brands as outcomes - dependent variables. 

Requirements

• A Categorical variable to use as an Outcome variable. 
• A Numeric, Date, Money, Categorical, or Ordered Categorical variable to use as a Predictor.   

Method

1. In the Anything menu select Advanced Analysis > Analysis of Variance > One-Way MANOVA. 
2. In the object inspector go to the Inputs tab.
3. In the Outcomes menu select the outcomes variables. 
4. Select the predictor variable from the Predictor list. 
5. OPTIONAL: To compute standard errors that are robust to violations of the assumption of constant variance (ie, heteroscedasticity) select Robust standard errors. 
6. OPTIONAL: If the output returns an error due to missing data, go to the Missing Data menu and select Exclude Cases with Missing Data or select Use Partial Data. 
7. OPTIONAL: Select Variable names to display Variable names in the output instead of labels.
8. OPTIONAL: Select Categorical as Binary to convert Categorical outcome variables to binary variables.
