Requires two or more columns of measured data, with the dependent variables in the first column(s) and the independents in consecutive columns. The program will ask for the number of dependent variables.
Missing data supported by column average substitution.
The output consists of four main parts.
Overall MANOVA
An overall test of multivariate regression significance.
Tests on independent variables
The test for the overall effect of each independent variable (on all dependent variables) is based on a similar design as the overall MANOVA above, but comparing the residuals of regression with and without the independent variable in question.
Tests on dependent variables
ANOVA tests for the overall effect of all independent variables on each dependent.
Regression coefficients and statistics
The complete set of coefficients and their significances for all combinations of independent and dependent variables.
