GLM Multivariate Analysis
for all cells are the same. Analysis of variance is robust to departures from normality,
although the data should be symmetric. To check assumptions, you can use
homogeneity of variances tests (including Box’s M) and spread-versus-level plots. You
can also examine residuals and residual plots.
Related procedures. Use the Explore procedure to examine the data before doing an
analysis of variance. For a single dependent variable, use GLM Univariate. If you
measured the same dependent variables on several occasions for each subject, use
GLM Repeated Measures.
