Introduction
On this webpage, we will focus on repeated measures ANOVA where there are two between-subjects factors and one within-subjects factor. We will assume that the sphericity assumption has been met and so won’t deal with correction factors. We also won’t explore follow-up testing since these are described extensively elsewhere (click here or here for more details).
Example
Example 1: We consider the situation similar to that in Example 1 of One Between and One Within Subjects Factor. This time, though, there are two between-subjects factors Age (Young and Old) and Gender (Male and Female) and one between-subjects factor Time (Day1, Day2, Day3, and Day4) based on the data in Figure 1.
Note that the data in range A1:F41 is reformatted in the figure for ease of display.

We use the scheme described in Figure 2. Here a = # of Factor A levels, b = # of Factor B levels, c = # of Factor C (within-subjects, i.e. repeated measures factor), and m = # of subjects.

Data Analysis Tool
Real Statistics Data Analysis Tool: The repeated measures ANOVA analysis required for two between-subjects factors and one within-subjects factor can be performed using Real Statistics’ Mixed Three-way Repeated Measures Anova data analysis tool.
For Example 1, press Ctrl-m and click on the Anova tab (or choose the ANOVA option if using the original user interface). Next, choose the Mixed Three-way Repeated Measures Anova option. Fill in the dialog box that appears as shown in Figure 3.

After pressing the OK button, the output shown in Figures 4 and 5 is displayed.

Representative Formulas
Representative formulas from Figure 4 are shown in Figure 6.

Representative formulas from Figure 5 about degrees of freedom are shown in Figure 7, while those about SS are shown in Figure 8.

Hello Charles,
How can I perform post hoc tests for the mixed three-way repeated ANOVA using Real Statistics?
Thank you.
Cristian
Hello Cristian,
It depends on which significant result you obtained from the mixed three-way repeated ANOVA.
If you email me your test results, it would be easier for me to provide a more specific response.

Hi Charles,
How can I perform post hoc tests using Real Statistics for the Mixed Three-way Repeated Measures Anova: Two between subjects factor and one within subjects factor?
Thank you.
Cristian
Hello Charles,
I can’t find the Mixed Three-way Repeated Measures Anova data analysis tool and the other Repeated Measures ANOVA tools in your latest Real Statistics add-in.
Can you please help me on this? Thank you.
Best,
Cristian
Hello Cristian,
It is still in the same place. Press Ctrl-m and click on the Anova tab.
Charles
Ohh I’m sorry. I thought my version of the Real Statistics was the latest. It was v9.0.
Anyway, I got fixed. Thanks for the help.
Cristian
