Hi, ive just done a Anova on a set of data...ive got the results but i have no idea how to examine the data to get answers?

 

can anybody help me? i have df,f and sig!!

Running ANOVA on SPSS will tell you only whether or not there is a significant effect. It will not tell you where the effect is.

 

You say you have F, df & p. If p < 0.05 then there is a significant effect. The easiest way to find out where the effect is, is to generate a table of means or a bar chart of means. Either of these will show you which condition differs most from the others. If you need more detail, (i.e. the effect is not clear, or more than one condition shows an effect) then you should run post-hoc analyses (Tukey's HSD is good).

 

Your question would be easier to answer simply, if you gave more information about the experiment, IV? Levels? DV? and so-on.
