GLM Univariate: Related Procedures

Use Split File in combination with the Explore procedure to screen your data. Study the shape of each group's distribution, and, if the groups are not normally distributed, use the K Independent Samples Tests procedure, available in the Nonparametric Tests procedure. If your groups are not independent--for example, if you observe the same people under several conditions--use the GLM Repeated Measures procedure, available in SPSS® Statistics Standard Edition or the Advanced Statistics Option. For multiple dependent variables, factor-by-covariate interactions in the analysis of covariance, or nested or nonfactorial designs, use the GLM Multivariate procedure, available in SPSS Statistics Standard Edition or the Advanced Statistics Option.
